Notes | |||
"Ruby red color, with purplish glints. The clean nose profile shows berry fruits scents and jam aromas, with hints of violet and bitter liquorices in the finale. The wine is supple and warm, well-balanced, firm and pleasantly lasting in the mouth. It is an ideal food wine, perfect to pair with a wide range of dishes, easily drinkable and enjoyable every day." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Aromas of spiced cherries, violets, bark, cloves and potpourri. It’s medium-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins and fresh acidity. Tight and focused finish. From organically grown grapes. Try from 2023." —James Suckling "The 2019 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Madia is sweetly spiced and very pretty, with a display of blue and red fruits yielding to dusty dried florals. Its textures are silky-smooth and pliant, with a mix of tart wild berries and salty minerals, creating a more tactile feel. Purple-tinged florals and a hint of framing tannin linger long, making for a balanced and pleasantly grippy finale." —Vinous |
