Abruzzo produces some of the world’s most generous and fleshy red wines at prices anyone can afford and the Spelt Riserva is one of the most inviting. Showing intense black-fruit flavors with smooth, polished tannins it’s a crowd-pleaser from the first sip to the last. And you can drink in immediately, no cellaring required.
