Montepulciano majestically perches on a hill, offering you a sweeping panorama over the rolling hills of southern Tuscany. The town is an outstanding example of Renaissance architecture, whose elegance manifests in the palaces along the main street and the impressive Piazza Grande. Climb the tower of the Palazzo Comunale for a comprehensive view over the landscape and the city's rooftops. Outside the city walls lies the church Tempio di San Biagio, an architectural gem of the High Renaissance. Montepulciano is also the birthplace of the world-famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG; tastings in historic wine cellars are a must-do here. For a relaxed exploration of the alleys, a visit in May, June, or September is recommended to avoid the largest tourist crowds. Sample local specialties and the noble wine in one of the traditional Enotecas.
