Montepeloso
A Quo Costa Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Montepulciano
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)
