Collemorino Montepulciano D'Abruzzo
Translucent ruby in the glass.
Woodsy spice on the nose.
Very satisfying and round on the palate.
More foresty notes with an emphasis on berries and the smell of the woods dominate the flavour. Really enjoying the flavor of this, but I'm unable to pinpoint specifics.
Haven't had montepulciano in quite some time and am very pleased.

Bramble fruit and black cherry aplenty on the nose of this #montepulcianodabruzzo, succeeded by wet slate and soft spice plus dried floral notes. Bountiful acidity offsetting dark fruit and cocoa on the palate tracking into feathery tannins on the finish - delicious if you let it air out for a day. Note this was tight and vanilla-laden when you first open it; a day in the wine fridge works wonders. Check the box for another Italian grape and region I need to try more frequently.
