    2019 Chiara Ciavolich "Divus" Montepulciano d'Abruzzo (Abruzzo, IT) 5R

    The nose has an appealing vibrancy, showcasing bright cherry, peppercorn, and subtle floral notes. The palate starts off smooth, but a tangy liveliness soon emerges, with crunchy berry fruits wrapping around hints of tobacco and savory spices. The use of older barrels adds a delicate touch of oak that harmonizes well with the fresh berry flavors.

    About The Varietal

    Montepulciano

    Montepulciano is a red wine grape variety that is extensively cultivated in central Italy, with a notable presence in regions like Abruzzo, Marche, and Molise in the east. It's important to note that despite its name, Montepulciano is not grown in the town of Montepulciano in southern Tuscany. Wines made from Montepulciano grapes are admired worldwide for their gentle flavors and rich color pigmentation.
