Montepulciano

Tips for visiting Montepulciano

• Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is the local DOCG red wine. Many cellars (cantine) under the old town offer tastings.
• The Tempio di San Biagio, a Renaissance church just below the town, is worth the short walk.
• Pienza, another hill town in the Val d'Orcia, is a short drive away.
• The Bravìo delle Botti, a barrel-rolling race between the town's districts, takes place at the end of August.

Dates, prices and rules change, so check official sites before you travel.
