Montepulciano - characteristics of the variety

This vine variety is widely grown in the Italian regions of Marche, Molise and Abruzzo. And it is Abruzzo, which is also the cradle of Montepulciano and where his most famous representatives come from! Montepulciano works very well in mixtures with other varieties, especially Sangiovese. However, when vinified separately, it gives really excellent results with exceptional conditions for archiving.

What is the taste of this wine

Montepulciano is a wine that presents itself with very intense colors of deep shades. The aroma is characterized by fruity tones of berries, plums and black cherries. Especially for young wines, floral tones are common, especially violets and cyclamens. When tasting, you will enjoy a strong but harmonious tannin structure. The taste is smooth, well persistent and varies slightly depending on the region of origin. Montepulciano from Marche is generally characterized by good intensity, fruit tones and the influence of the sea, which gives it a characteristic touch of taste. Wines from the north are slightly spicy, while those from the south are dominated by a more fruity note.
