PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Founded in 1961 by Dino Carletti, the Poliziano estate is a perfect example of how a relentless quest for  perfection has achieved remarkable results! Starting with only 54 acres in the commune of Montepulciano, the estate has now grown to over 640 acres under the direction of Dino’s son, Federico Carletti.
Poliziano was founded in 1961 by Dino Carletti, and is located a few miles northeast of Montepulciano. Dino’s son Frederico inherited the winery in 1982 and subsequently expanded the estate while improving overall quality. Today, Frederico and renowned winemaking consultants Carlo Ferrini and Maurizio Castelli oversee the 297 acre property, the majority of which is planted on the southern slope of the old town hill in Montepulciano.

The cornerstone of the estate is the cultivation of the regional Sangiovese clone called Prugnolo Gentile. In the proper hands, Prugnolo Gentile is capable of producing profound wines of balance, structure and elegance.
