Orlandi Contucci Ponno Rubiolo Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2021

Abruzzo, ItalyThese montepulciano vineyards sit on the foothills of the Vomano River valley at 200m, approximately 2km from the Adriatic Sea, on silty loams. From a mix of clones, this medium red aged 6-8 months in stainless. Sultry plum cherry compote fills a softer palate with slightly sticky tannins and a warming bitter cocoa finish. Try with a slight chill and meaty / tomato-sauced pasta.Tasted: 21 April 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
