Winemaker's notes: 100% Montepulciano d' Abruzzo Deep ruby red color with violet highlights and a pleasant and fruity bouquet. Full bodied, soft tannins and good acidity. Excellent with pasta dishes and red meats.

My Review: This was my favorite of the tasting. Smelled fruity like cherry and sweet. I tasted cherry and a little sweet. The after taste was very rich and smell of the fruits was enhanced. Would try this again.

I had this on its own without food.
