The wine details: Montepulciano D’Abruzzo 2024.

A popular dry, red Italian wine made from the Montepulciano grape in the Abruzzo region of east-central Italy. Known for its excellent value, it typically features robust dark fruit flavours (like black cherry and plum), soft tannins, and a medium tofull body. Shares similarities in body, structure, and generous dark fruit flavours with Shiraz!
