Barone di Valforte Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2013
Abruzzo, ItalyThe Sorricchio family has owned the baronial fief of Valforte since the 13th Century, and now brother Guido and Francesco Sorricchio oversee the 42 hectares of vineyards in these hills (3-400m) around Città Sant’Angelo, approximately 6 kilometers from the Adriatic Sea. Deep, wild black plum and cherry, herbs, branch and charred meats are tempered with a bright, crisp vein of bright acidity. Steeping on the skins for two weeks lends a riff of textured intensity and light tannins to this juicy red.Tasted: 21 January 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $17.79 | 750ml | BCLS |
