Note di degustazione
Sour citrus mixes with earth tones, animal musk, cocoa and earl grey as the 2009 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Vecchie Vigne slowly unfolds in the glass. Aromatically intense and just starting to show maturity, this enters the palate soft and enveloping, yet more lifted than expected. A brisk acidity adds dimension to its dried black cherry fruits. Blood orange and saline minerals combine to create a salted citrus character, as the 2009 tapers off with adolescent tannins that tug at the palate. This is in a beautiful place, already pleasing for lovers of mature wine yet also with unbelievable energy and freshness.

Informazioni sul produttore
Emidio Pepe is a star of the Abruzzo region and one of Italy’s most famous names. Worshipped by natural-wine lovers for its low-intervention approach, this estate makes category-defying, age-worthy examples of Montepulciano, Trebbiano and Cerasolo d’Abruzzo, as well as Pecorino Colli Aprutini.
