I’ve had the pleasure of trying 2 Montepulciano’s in the last two weeks that are both exactly how they should be, nothing flashy but solid well made food friendly warm and tasty snd full of leather, black stones and other touches of earth with bright and balanced fruits

Fruity - blackberries and sour cherry. Little thin on mid palate- dusty tannins on finish. Good weeknight pizza- spaghetti wine.

It's not my cup of tea, or glass of wine. I find it metallic, minerally, funky in a chemical way. It has the full flavor and body of Montepulciano, but not the fruitness that I expect. Certainly a more savory wine for someone who like savory wines with high mineral and metallic like flavors. Perhaps this will taste great with pizza and a hearty red sauce.
Color: Deep red that it looks purple. It's the purple of plums.
Aroma: A smell like new shoes and nail polish with some plum. It could be from the yeast that chemical smell. Like a metallic smell.
Taste: It has a bitter, minerally, slightly fruity taste, slightky acidic. It tastes a bit metallic. Its heavy in flavour without being too heavy in body like Montepulciano.
