Citra
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Abruzzi, Italy
A simple Italian red. Showing red and black fruits with chocolates, light vanilla, tobacco, earth, wet leaves, vegetables, spices and peppercorn.
Dry on the palate with medium plus acidity.
A little unbalanced and better with food. After an hour of airtime, some tannins come in, with a little bit of structure.
13% alcohol by volume.
84 points.

Cheap but damn good. Not fancy or complex but tastes good. Drink now.

Very simple table wine. Sharp aromas and slightly chemical flavor. Got a little better 2nd day. 2.99 at Trader Joe’s. Can’t really complain for the price. 3rd bottle of a night? Wouldn’t really get again.

Anni e bicchieri di vino non si contano mai - Fresh homemade italian gnocchi and sauce, fresh sausage, and fresh parm— Abruzzo would be proud

Wouldn’t buy it again but it wasn’t terrible for the price.
