La Piuma Organic Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2018 (Italy)
- Black doris plum
- Toasted nut
- Dark berry
- Silky, spicy finish
“Fruit forward and comfortingly appealing, the wine shows Black Doris plum, clove and toasted nut aromas on the nose, leading to a beautifully supple palate that’s ripe and flavoursome. Medium-full-bodied and silky with an appealing spicy finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
“Big, rich, fruity, organic red with plum, dark berry, chocolate and five-spice supported by fine, ripe tannins. A mellow, warming red that's probably as good as it's going to get. Offers a lot of bang for the buck" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review
"For a few dollars more, the certified organic La Piuma represents a step up – a plush, creamy, somewhat decadent example of Montepulciano. Fresh berryfruit is complemented with a smoky, brooding note. Montepulciano’s edgy tannins are still present, but overall the mouthfeel is more supple, and textured, making for a great sipping wine of an evening. Best of all is the sweet and sour finish, distinctively Italian, adding a touch of class" Paul Tudor, Master of Wine
The rolling hills of the Abruzzo region in Eastern Italy are the spiritual home of Montepulciano, Italy’s 2nd most important red grape. This is a wine-style where spending just a few extra dollars can make a world of difference. As is the case here. Excellent drainage and sunlight exposure on rolling hills, calcareous clay soils, lower cropping and organic viticulture have all contributed to a wine that has ripe, bright, juicy berry characters and lush texture to balance the vibrant acidity and sappy tannins.
Food Pairing: Most definitely a food wine where the savoury flavours compliment those of the food and the acidity acts as a freshener balanced against the richness of pizza/ragout/cheese.
