This is the vineyard that started Vino Noceto and is still the source of some of our most profound and ageable Sangioveses. With formidable structure, reserved fruit, and pronounced, savory notes of leather, cedar, and clay, it is usually the first Single Block to sell out.

Blended from our best estate lots, Noceto's Brunello-Style Riserva Sangiovese is a bolder take on the varietal that still respects the fruit's bright and delicate nature.

Noceto’s Brunello-style Riserva Sangiovese is blended from the best estate lots and displays superior fruit while retaining balance. Fruit-packed, full-flavored, and complex with a lingering finish.
"This robust and tannic wine exudes sawn oak aromas, and blends both tart and ripe red fruits on the palate. Its grippy texture and concentration give a sense of good aging potential. Best from 2023."

Elegant, with overtones of sweet oak, this 100% estate Sangiovese Piccolo comes from the hillside on our ranch-house parcel. Grapes for this selection were originally sourced from Isole e Olena in Chianti, Tuscany, Italy.
91 points, Silver - California State Fair
No Single Block has evolved over the years as much as Hillside. This is a wine that has "grown up" with every consecutive vintage. Last year, it was our 2015 Hillside that so impressed the judges at the California State Fair, they awarded the wine "Best Sangiovese in California." It sold out within a month of receiving the praise. The 2016 vintage is, so far, tasting even better.

Jammy, spicy, earthy, rich, big, meaty, with anise, chocolate, coffee, and a lingering finish. 100% estate Sangiovese Grosso.
"This rich and relatively soft block-designated wine has a lighter-than-usual color, a rich, buttery aroma and jammy flavors that recall strawberries and plums. It's a smooth variation on the often tannic and restrained personality of Sangiovese." -Wine Enthusiast

Double Gold Winner, 95 Point Wine
"Nicely concentrated and ripe-tasting, this full-bodied wine is a standout. It shows great structure, wrapping good acidity and fine-grained tannins around red-cherry, raspberry, earth and new leather flavors. It's already been aging in the winery cellar, but should keep developing through 2024." - Wine Enthusiast

Aglianico (ah-L’YEE’AH-nee-koh) - the ancient one - hails from the sunny, volcanic soils of Southern Italy.

Only 47 cases produced!
