MONTEPULCIANO D'ABRUZZO, GIANNI MASCIARELLI, ABRUZZO, ITALY 2018

100% Montepulciano d' Abruzzo. Gianni Masciarelli, a visionary Italian winemaker, "masterminded the revival of winemaking in Abruzzo by re-fashioning Montepulciano d' Abruzzo grape."

An intense, ruby-red colour with little transparency. The nose reveals great personality with powerful, elegant and clean aromas. Flavours of red berries, cherries and redcurrants with secondary notes of violet and tobacco. The tannins are fine and rounded.

Decant and try then leave and try again, this wine will get even better.
