He he he - I'm almost embarrassed by how long it took me to wrap my head around which is which. Eish...Italy! Weirdly enough, I actually enjoyed this huge country...and kinda wish there was a WSG Italy Master course coz I'd be crazy enough to say 'yes please' to more punishment 😂.
Your 'di' or 'd' nails the best way to distinguish the two by labels. But I'm still a long way away from distinguishing the two in my glass...or even remembering that 'di Montepulciano' is an option next time I yell Sangiovese in a blind (aka muttering Sangio under my breath while kicking myself for not spending more time tasting more of this grape).
Great job breaking down Montepulciano! Love the 7 recommendations...2 of which I think are available in SA 🤞🏾!
Glad you enjoyed the breakdown, I feel like there's just an endless rabbit hole you can go down with Italy (the good kind!), so no way to master it all but I would definitely take that master course. If you are able to find any of them, let us know your thoughts!
