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.

Bad, bad, bad. The meal was great, the wine was not. I will not buy this wine again.

Want sure whether it's the winery or that I am just not a fan of Mont. dAbruzzo. Will have to try another to be sure. After it sat for 30. Seemed to drop off abruptly. Initial taste out of the bottle seemed "grey". Can't find the right word-2011 vintage
