Cala De Poeti, Montepulciano D’Abruzzo DOC (Italy) 2015

Feb 8, 2017

By Rich Cook

The Adriatic Coast joins the party at the 2017 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition with this beautiful Platinum Award winning wine.  It’s a classic combination of rusticity and refinement all at once, with rich red and black berries joined by notes of leaf and crushed rock and a touch of pepper in both aroma and flavor profiles, and a bright finish that adds a kiss of lemon to refresh you.  A perfect foil for a grilled sirloin.
