Red that's both light and dark. Nutmeg, earth, and cranberry nose. Light bodied, dusty cherries, rustic tannins, baking spices, and a short dry finish. Best with food.

A disappointingly mild offering from Montepulciano D’Abruzzo. The nose is gorgeous with deep aromas of baked cherry, fig preserves, and wet Katsura leaves on a bright autumn day. Unfortunately the nose is more expressive than the the wine on my palate. Sips offer a hit of tannin, acid, hints of watered down cranberry juice, and little else. Would try again if my favorite wine shop were to do a regional tasting. Enjoyed with food— vegetarian roasted spaghetti squash over rigatoni with fried shallots, tomato, and bell pepper.

Red and black fruits, a bit of structure, some acid. An enjoyable sipper.
