The 2017 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva is fruit-forward and extroverted at first, displaying medicinal cherry, black licorice and confectioners spice. With more time in the glass, notes of savory herbs and white smoke mineral tones add further depth.
Soft, fleshy textures usher in a mix of tart red and ripe blue fruits, creating a sweet and sour effect, as brisk acids and fine tannin mingle toward the close. It’s long and subtly structured, showing purity and poise while staying within the ripe context of the vintage.
