Abbondanza Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

100% Montepulciano. A deep, dark ruby hue. The nose reveals chocolate and the dark sweetness of ripe black currants. On the palate black cherry and plum, framed by herbs and a touch of vanilla. The finish is persistent, a slow ebb of fruit and spice that keeps you coming back for another sip. Pair with rich pasta dishes, braised meats and hard cheeses the earthier and more unctuous, the better. Organic.

From Italy's Abruzzo region, crafted from grapes cultivated between the Gran Sasso mountains and the Adriatic Sea. The vineyards are dry farmed and situated at elevations of 250-350 meters above sea level. Clay-rich soils with significant limestone and sand content. The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented naturally on the skins in stainless steel, then aged in French oak for six months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered
