A lighter-style Montepulciano d'Abruzzo from U.V.A., made from organically farmed plots with minimal intervention — juicy, pure dark fruit of cherry and cassis, no heavy oak or toast, just a hint of spice and an immensely drinkable character.
Tasting Notes
An organic Montepulciano that deliberately avoids the heavy, overripe style the region is sometimes associated with. Pure dark fruit of cherry and cassis, a hint of spice, medium body, and no oak to interrupt the fresh, direct finish. Versatile and food-friendly — one of the better-value natural reds from central Italy.
