Wine Tasting Cortenova Monepulciano d'Abruzzo



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

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 blueberry mixed with strawberry smell. It was very pleasing to the nose. The wine had a really strong taste with a nice little kick at the finish. The wine was dry but smooth. 

I tasted this on its own with no food.
