Dive into a deep glass of black fruit with our 2023 Due Mari Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. Rustic, earthy notes are on full display. Powerful aromas of wood smoke and tar layer a smoky dimension to the fruit-forward character of this Italian red. Robust on the palate yet delicate on the nose, this Montepulciano makes a complex yet sipping experience. This Montepulciano hails from the Maremma district of Abruzzo, known colloquially as Italy’s Wild West. The coastline of white sandy beaches and strawberry trees gives way to picturesque Tuscan hills adorned with olive trees and rolling vineyards. From this land, Due Mari carefully hand-selects the most concentrated fruit in their pruned grapes and bottles the resulting wine with care, as illustrated in this magnificent Italian red. For best results, serve this Due Mari Montepulciano just around room temperature at 60-65° F. If you’d like to pair it with an Italian partner, think of classic Italian dishes like Parma ham, beef bolognese, and sausage pizza.
