A superb and very affordable example of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo from this super little winery. It has a bright ruby red colour with hints of purple at the rim. The bouquet is one of red ruits with hints of marascino behind and some notes of spice. On the palate it is tasty with loads of soft fruit, well built in terms of body with a slightly rustic finish. Just the ticket for quaffing at a barbecue or savouring with some tasty meat dishes, even poultry. An excellent wine that will suit the majority of palates.
