Enoteca Caratello In Montepulciano

We wandered in by chance but were immediately struck by the beauty of the wine bar, which was converted from a cellar. It was truly charming. The crostini were one better than the last, excellent cured meats, and excellent wine! The sommelier, truly kind and knowledgeable, recommended and explained every tasting. The local products from small, truly delicious wineries were delicious. It's impossible to leave without a bottle of Montepulciano red! Definitely not to be missed!

Strolling along Montepulciano's main street, past the windows of artisans, painters, wine shops, restaurants, churches, museums, and exhibitions, while waiting to return to Genoa, drawn by a beautifully furnished wine tasting shop, we were greeted with elegance, professionalism, and empathy by a lady whose kindness and beauty immediately made us understand that this would be a wonderful experience. And so it was, and will remain a fond memory of this brief stop in a splendid Tuscan town. To begin, we enjoyed two glasses of wine, a white and a rosé, both fantastic. A selection of platters, carefully arranged by the lady, included excellent cheeses, cured meats, and a historic giardiniera. Then, a taste of a wonderful historic wine, Grono di Pierino Farina, a delightful aroma and flavor that satisfies the palate and leaves the mouth full of flavor. The lady spoiled us with her helpfulness and knowledge. We were truly satisfied and delighted to have spent so pleasantly part of our short stay in Montepulciano in this characteristic establishment.

Beautiful Enoteca with great wine, drinks and cheese plates! An absolute must-try in town

The lady (I think the owner) was very knowledgeable and excellent. When I asked for a glass of Montepulciano red, she also brought me an unexpected taste of Nobile. Bread and olive oil to accompany the wine were offered. Well done!

We entered by chance before leaving Montepulciano… Michela guided us to one of the best wines I have ever tasted, a noble reserve of Montepulciano from a small local winery. Professional and friendly sommelier… definitely more unique than rare. Beautiful experience! Too bad we didn’t take pictures… we really enjoyed the moment!

Very polite and competent staff. Excellent service, wide selection of wines in bottles but little choice in glasses.

We spent a midday enjoying some wines and the wonderful service. There's a variety of local wines, everything is carefully curated, and the setting is unique. A selection of cheeses and typical local products is also provided. Thank you and congratulations. Highly recommended.

A small wine shop for every budget in Montepulciano. Chosen almost by chance and 100% approved! The sommelier will guide you through the selection of the best wine in a simple and passionate manner. Excellent quality wines, but above all from small, local, and natural wineries... A bottle of Montepulciano has come home with us!
