“This Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is one of the best we have ever tasted. Concentrated ruby red in colour, its nose and taste are characterised by a wonderful balance between fruit components and oak spice. A compact, elegant and very balanced red with a rich finish. Perfect!"

"The Terre di Casauria Riserva San Clemente 2018 opens with a mentholated blend of plum sauce, sage and dusty earth. On the palate, it is elegant and polished, with juicy red and blue fruits that fade into savoury herbs and exotic spices. The 2018 tapers off long and structured. A hint of violets and lavender calls the taster back to the glass."

A broad complex nose shows notes of forest berries, licorice and cumin with mineral notes of graphite. A textural and voluminous wine with unusual power and personality that sets a new benchmark for what Montepulciano d’Abruzzo can produce.
ABV: 14.5%
