Plenty going on here. Vibrant with leather, red fruit, lavender and sage. Nice grip but in a gentle way from the soft tannins. Only five years old, which seems young for this, though very drinkable right now.

The 2004 Avignonesi Montepulciano Riserva Grandi Annate opens with aromas of sweet fruit, mostly black cherry and plum, along with notes of dried roses and clayey soil. Garnet-robed with a watery rim, it's medium-bodied with fine tannins and a core of sweet fruit, almost entirely dominated by black cherry. Whole not overly complicated, it's a pleasure to drink. Finishes with sweet tobacco.
