On the nose, it offers vibrant aromas of wild cherry, blackberry, and violet, layered with a touch of licorice and spice. The palate reveals juicy red fruit, balanced acidity, and velvety tannins that frame a medium-bodied structure. The wine concludes with a lingering, slightly peppery finish. Made entirely from Montepulciano grapes, it is best enjoyed within 3–5 years of the vintage to capture its youthful energy and freshness. Stylistically, it is noted for its lively expression, approachability, and impressive balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp data-start=\"1300\" data-end=\"1365\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1300\" data-end=\"1313\"\u003eAccolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1313\" data-end=\"1316\"\u003eVinous - 90 points.\u003cbr data-start=\"1335\" data-end=\"1338\"\u003eJames Suckling - 90 points.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp data-start=\"1367\" data-end=\"1634\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1367\" data-end=\"1383\"\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1383\" data-end=\"1386\"\u003ePair this wine with grilled Italian sausage, eggplant Parmesan, or tomato-based pasta dishes.
