Dark ruby coloration showing some translucency. On the nose, cherry, dark berry, anise, florals, and vanilla- hints of minerals and clay. On the palate it is rich and full, with notes cherry, dark berry, anise, vanilla and clay. Chewy tannins balanced nicely. Medium finish. A bargain value wine - -$25 at B-21. — 7 days ago

The 2017 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is a terrific choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. Readers will find a wine that offers plenty of Vino Nobile depth, but in a mid-weight style that makes it accessible. Bright red cherry, dried flowers, mint and white pepper add a brilliant upper register to the red Sangiovese fruit. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, April 2021)

Note to Delectable; this is not from Tuscany. It’s Montepulciano d’ABRUZZO. Little lighter and leaner than the 2012 I had, but still full of flavor. Nose reminded me of Zin. Blackberry, cherry, cloves, beautifully balanced. A terrific Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. If u like them, try this. — a month ago

The 2017 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Asinone is ample and creamy, with all of the natural radiance of the year on display. Ripe red cherry, rose petal, cedar, lavender and spice all build as this extroverted Vino Nobile shows off its considerable allure. Even with all of its exotic beauty, the 2017 retains quite a bit of energy and plenty of structure, with a good deal of translucent vibrancy as well. In a word: superb.

The 2016 Rosso di Montepulciano offers up striking aromatics to match its taut, classically austere personality. Rose petal, mint, cedar and blood orange add an element of exoticism that is impossible to miss. The 2016 is beguiling in its translucent finesse. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous,April 2021)
