Le Altane
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Abruzzi, Italy
2015v. Dark and inky red. Nose of red plum and dark fruit. On the palette, there's some of that same fruit, with a good amount of acid, and some deep earth and tar underneath. Slight notes of violet? Slowly dissipating tannins with a slight grip. Nothing that will blow your mind but it's a pretty great food wine and is fairly well rounded. 12.5% ABV. Good QPR. Bought from Wegmans for $6!
