Grape

Montepulciano

Origin
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, not to be confused with the Tuscan village of the same name, is made from the Montepulciano grape variety from the Abruzzi region. This is the signature wine from the area, with coastal plantings at the foot of the Apennines mountains.
Taste
Whilst standards in this region can vary, this is a reliable, medium-bodied wine with lots of red cherry fruit and soft supple tannins.
Enjoy
The ripeness of the fruit and the soft tannic structure make this the perfect party wine or for drinking with light pork dishes.

    An excellent wine but still immature

    This wine is excellent but a bit young. I suggest it is kept in the cupboard for a year or so to get maximum benefit. However it is still very drinkable now.

    Five quid?

    I'm not complaining, easy drinking, great with some simple Italian food to bring out it's warmth, great with porchetta!

    Very good value for money

    If you like medium bodied #wine which goes down smoothly without leaving tannin, then this would be a good wine for you. Worryingly easy to drink, at £5 per bottle (if you buy in pairs), this is an absolute steal!

    Mk 1 escort

    Late summer in Cornwall and you have just fallen asleep in the back of your Grandad's Mk 1 Escort, on waking you find you have been sucking on the vinyl seat covering.
