Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
Our products
Wine of Montepulciano
Le Bèrne’s products derive from a long-standing tradition of hard work and passion for our territory.
The secret of our wines and our oil lies in our long past of traditional craftsmanship – from the harvest of hand-selected grapes to the traditional methods of olive picking. Quality is our greatest passion.
Vino Rosso has always been produced in Montepulciano, but it obtained DOC certification only in 1989. It is made with the same kinds of grapes used to produce Vino Nobile, but it is younger than Vino Nobile.
The origins of Vino Nobile are very ancient, in XVII Century the poet Francesco Redi stated that “Montepulciano is the king of all wines”.
During excellent vintages the wines from our best vats are dedicated to our Riserva, which ages for three years, two of which in barrel.
Vin Santo of Montepulciano is the third, most important D.O.C wine produced in the “Nobile” area.
Its recipe is based on the desiccation of selected grapes and it is a true symbol of Tuscan hospitality.
Affronto is made from Colorino and Mammolo – two rare, native grape varieties. The fragrance and style of Mammolo blend perfectly with the power and colour of Colorino.
“Olio extravergine d’oliva le Bèrne” is made with typical Tuscan types of olives, such as “Leccino”, “Frantoio” and “Moraiolo”.
