Description
The 5th vintage of this Cru quality Montepulciano is a sensational “Luxurious Red Wine Bargain” that we've sold at Fine Wine Delivery and that has achieved 99/100 from Italian Wine Critic, Luca Maroni. Such incredible consistency points to remarkable terroir and high-level winemaking. Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is the home to wonderfully rich and tasty reds with everyday prices that often belie the quality on offer. It’s premium glass bottle alludes to the superb experience captured inside... that once in your glass and passing your lips is almost certain to impress. Cultivated from older vines in Denominazione di Origine Protetta D.O.P within the Abruzzo appellation. In the winery’s records it is classified as a “Cru” production... “best of the best”. The blend spends 15-20 days post fermentation macerating on skins with daily gentle hand plunging. The resulting extraction of tannin/colour and flavour is luxurious. The final wine spends 9-12 months in a mix of French and American oak. Tenuta Ulisse Amaranta Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is a very concentrated, serious and welcoming red that offers incredible drinking at this early age but clearly has the pedigree and power to age gracefully through 2030+.
Smells
Enticing aromas of blackberries, Black Doris plums, milk chocolate, malt biscuits, black liquorice, vanilla pods and cedar with an exotic array of brown spices.
Tastes
One sip and your knees will buckle, the luxurious, deep, dark brooding fruit, floods your taste buds with an instantly warming, satisfying effect. The silky-smooth tannins are wrapped around the rich body of black fruits which finally give way to lingering flavours of chocolate, chestnuts and coffee grinds. Every sip is pure and hedonistic. Drinking well now through 2030, serve with a rich, hearty stew... slow cooked veal with mushrooms. Whatever... something that is bold like the wine. And keep a glass for after dinner.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
