This is a perfect expression of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, and a top value as well. Stock up!!
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo can be some of the finest, most inviting wine you will find on Italy's eastern coast. Abruzzo, which sits on the Adriatic Sea in the central part of Italy, is a region on the rise with both upstarts and long-term stalwarts alike. And a growing demand has only fueled the fire for what might be Italy's hottest region.
The famed Nestore Bosco estate has been producing world-class Montepulciano here since the 19th Century, but the wines have never been better than they are today thanks to an upgrade in both facilities and vineyard management.
These days the fifth generation of Boscos produces a delicious style of wine that pays homage to tradition with just the slightest hint of modernity to showcase the tremendous terroir.
We are always looking for a great pizza wine and this has been a reliable pick! Intense ruby in color with flavors of plum and cherries, this wine is a stunner!
Stock up on this Montepulciano for any upcoming get-together because this is the definition of a crowd-pleaser.
"Aromas of overturned earth, coriander and wild blackberries. Medium-to full-bodied with plenty of tasty savory character. Fine, slightly chewy tannins. Black tea and forest herbs on the palate. Drink now." - 90 Points James Suckling
