The Wine:
First made in 1977, this entry level Montepulciano is the ultimate value ‘pizza wine’, although it goes with just about anything. Highlighting the varietal characteristics (plum and morello cherry) with freshness (no oak), the result is a pleasing and versatile easy-to-drink wine. Dark ruby red with violet reflections. Cherries, red berries and plums on the nose. Elegant and promisingly fragrant. Juicy and structured on the palate, with noticeable tannins. Dry and spicy, fresh finish.
