Federico Carletti's estate since 1961; the leading estate of Montepulciano with 120 hectares across the DOCG's best sites. Asinone single vineyard is the flagship Prugnolo Gentile; also produces Cervognano and the Rosso di Montepulciano. Sustainable viticulture; consultation with Riccardo Cotarella over decades shaped the estate's modern style.
