Dear Rick, I was watching your tour on Tuscany and you visited a vineyard that offered Vino Noble in Montepulciano. They had massive casks for storing their wine. What winery was that and do they offer tours? Thanks in advance! John

Rick himself does not post on the forums, or at least I’ve never seen his posts. Perhaps someone who has seen the episode and recognizes the vineyard will chime in.

Didn't see the video, but if the vineyard is a member of the Consortium, they are all listed here: http://www.aziendeconsorziovinonobile.it/Soci/ENG/ with pics.
The icons are quite clear, some offer tours only by appointment.

John, the full transcript of each TV episode is posted on the RS website. If you were watching "Tuscany's Dolce Vita" from 2006 then here's your answer:
"Also facing the main square is the Contucci Palace, where the Contucci family still lives, produces, and sells their wine. In their cantina they welcome visitors to appreciate their wine and how it's made. Since 1953, your wine tasting host and very passionate tour guide has been…Adamo."
