  Was expecting more from this wine. Rather lean, not much fruit. I didn't expect Montepulciano d'Abruzzo to reach great heights but was hoping that this riserva would be a noticeable step up from the mainstream quality producers in the region and benefit form some additional bottle age. Not knocking the effort, it's not a bad wine but my advice is to enjoy wines from this DOC when they're relatively young and skip the riservas.

  decanted one hour. deep purple, almost black center; blackberry elixir, dark berry smash, dense gunmetal scent, wood spices; med+ weight, ripe dried black fruits, searing acids, maybe a touch of heat on the end. oh yeah, and dry, dry.
  
  will drink well for several more years. less rustic than entry-level examples, but may not warrant the premium.
  
  chicories caesar; panna pizza w/fennel sausage & arugula

  Beautiful rose-garnet color. Milk Chocolate-covered raspberries dominate this delicious confectionary nose. Sweet raspberries and crisp cranberries on the front palate; the wine gets tarter throughout until the end of the finish where the raspberry sweetness re-emerges. Really tasty.
