San Antini Montepulciano d`Abruzzo

The `quintessential` all-round Italian red, selected from the l`Aquila province of Abruzzo on the Adriatic coast. Deep purple in colour with intense aromas of blackberries and cherries with rich, robust characteristics that are typical of the region. The palate is intensely spicy with cherryish and jammy black fruit flavours, full, rich and well rounded. A portion was aged in oak to soften the palate and add some smoky character. Smooth tannins combine with the rich fruit flavours to create a full and flavoursome finish.
