A Quo, Montepeloso’s entry-level wine, is positively stellar in 2016. Sweet red cherry, plum, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco, rose petal, mint and sweet spice are pushed forward in this racy, beautifully layered Cabernet Sauvignon/Montepulciano-based blend. I love the sense of energy here. $24.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2019)

Montepeloso entry wine A Quo from Bolgheri. An extensive blend of 30% Montepulciano, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese, 10% Marselan, and 10% Alicante. Result is a medium bodied, fruit forward wine, with strawberry, blackberry and some chocolate.

Violet, wild flowers and fresh red fruits on the nose. Sweet cherries, mint and pepper flavors. Nice balance of power and elegance.
