Fairly simple, but nice. Expressive nose of raspberries and earth. Raspberries & minerals on the palate. Rustic and earthy with mild tannins. Probably would evolve over the next 3-4 years. Darn good qpr. (disclaimer: This is my first Monteulciano D'Abruzzo)

a good example of what this region is capable of producing. nice balance between sweet fruit, acidity and alcohol. body builds after 30 minutes suggesting that patience will be rewarded for this wine. went back to get more, none to be had. will try to source elsewhere.

Nice fruity taste that took a little too long to open up.

Tasted great, fruit flavors in a rustic delivery, but couldn't really pick up anything distinctive about the nose. For $10, not a bad quaffer.
