    Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Underground

    Montepulciano sits on tufa rock, and for 500 years, noble families carved wine cellars 3 stories DOWN into it. The Ercolani cellars beneath Palazzo Tarugi go through Gothic passages, Ghibelline hideouts, Renaissance foundations, and two ACTUAL ETRUSCAN TOMBS. You'll drink Vino Nobile—Italy's first DOCG (1980)—in caves where refugees hid during medieval wars. This isn't a wine tour. It's archaeology with a corkscrew.
