Montepulciano

Origin
Since its founding in 1978, the successful family-run Masciarelli winery has grown from its original 2.5 hectares in the town of San Martino to a total of 320 hectares today, spread across 14 different towns and villages throughout Abruzzo's provinces.
Taste
Bright ruby in colour, with an attractive nose of red cherry, with subtle violet and tobacco notes. The palate frames blackcurrant and damson fruit with taught tannins and notes of liquorice and spice.
Enjoy
Medium weight and a streak of acidity make this a great all-round food wine. Best served with tomato-based pasta dishes.

    Something different from Montepulicano

    This region can produce bland, characterless wines but this is out of the ordinary - bold, with an individual character and mouth-filling flavour. Not a wine for every day but an excellent alternative to the run-of-the-mill. I'm not sure what its best food match would be, but it went well with anchovy-spiced roast lamb.
