Thornton Winery is pleased to introduce this wine for the first time ever! Lovers of Italian red wine will know Montepulciano as the famous red grape of the Abruzzo region in central Italy (Montepulciano d’Abruzzo).

Aroma: Complex fruits such as dark cherry, red and black berries, and red plum. Packed with spice (baking spices, especially cinnamon) with some new leather and earthy notes.
Palate: Full bodied with ample tannins, this wine explodes with red and black fruits (dark cherry, black raspberry, and boysenberry) and has a nice balanced acidity. The finish is long with lingering fruit, tannins, and spice.
Pairing: This full, delicious wine is begging for rich foods. Keeping things Italian, try osso buco or grilled meats, pasta dishes with rich red and meat sauces, pizza with sausage and spicy dried meats, and dry, aged, full-flavored cheeses.
