Wine Review: This rustic Italian Montepulciano is a clear, deep red color, which has aromas of saddle leather, black cherry, blood orange, dried oregano, hyacinth, and a touch of wood smoke. Medium bodied on the palate, it is dry, balanced, smooth, moderately acidic and a bit angular. I detected flavors of brambly black raspberry, oak and marionberry, with hints of stony minerality, dark chocolate, and black cherry. There are fine grained tannins and a dry, long finish. Serve this food friendly and very good value Montepulciano with a warm bowl of tagliatelle alla bolognese. - Mark
Winemaker Notes: This wine has a deep ruby red color with an earthy and fruity bouquet of cherry, orange and wild herbs. On the palate, the berry and citrus and mineral flavors erupt and are joined with a touch of vanilla and chocolate. Vibrant acidity, full-bodied and well-structured with soft and well-balanced tannins.
