Tasting-Cortenova Montepulciano d'Abruzzo


Name: Cortenova Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Variety: 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Region: Abruzzo
Country: Italy
Price: $6.95
Year: 2010

Winery review: Deep ruby red color with violet highlights and a pleasant and fruity bouquet. Full bodied, soft tannins and good acidity. Excellent with pasta dishes and red meats.

My review: The wine had a fruity smell. It was smooth and easy to drink for a red wine. It wasn't an in your face wine, and I thought it would be good paired with food. It did not have a fruity taste to match the fruity smell.

I did not have this wine with food.
