elegant aromas which start with hints of blackberry, plum and black cherry
followed by aromas of blueberry, vanilla, licorice, cocoa, cinnamon,
tobacco, mace and black pepper. The mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense
flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum,
blackberry and black cherry. A well made wine. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
