"This juicy red has aromas of baked cherries, vanilla, orange peel and grilled herbs. It’s medium-bodied with medium tannins and a fruity, lightly jammy character. Drink now." - Claire Nesbitt

"The 2023 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riparosso grumbles up with a hauntingly dark blend of citrus-tinged blackberry, wet stone and balsamic spice. Silken in texture yet lifted in feel, this cascades across the palate with tart wild berry fruit and crunchy mineral tones, all elevated by a core of zesty acidity. Just gently tannic, it leaves a violet resonance through the slightly angular finale."
