Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 'Colle Morino' 2005, Italy
Really fruity, juicy and briary fruit flavours dominate this wine with a super-ripe, deep purple colour, ultra plush tannins and mouth-filling texture. Ravishing, sexy and a real joy to drink!
Abruzzo lies in the warm southern half of Italy, facing the eastern Adriatic coast which lends great ripeness to the grapes grown there, but can also keep them fresh due to the cooling sea breezes.
