This Montepulciano Riserva delivers depth, polish, and a classic sense of Abruzzese richness. Aged extensively to soften its bold structure, it opens with aromas of dark cherry, blackberry compote, dried herbs, and a touch of mocha. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with layers of black plum, cocoa, leather, and warm spice framed by firm yet refined tannins. The extended aging brings harmony and length, leading to a smooth, lingering finish. A versatile Riserva that pairs beautifully with hearty pastas, roasted meats, and aged cheeses.
