Since its foundation in 1961, Poliziano has swiftly established a reputation as one of the leading producers in the area surrounding the beautiful town of Montepulciano. The winery's story taps into the history and culture of this picture-postcard corner of Tuscany. The name Poliziano is a tribute to the Renaissance humanist and poet Angelo Ambrogini, also known as Poliziano. His 'nickname,' Poliziano, is a simple reference to his birthplace - Montepulciano was originally Mons Politianus in Latin. And why Asinone? The vineyard gets its name from its shape, said to resemble the back of a mule.
