Description

Montepulciano is a grape commonly associated with the Italian region of Abruzzo, not to be mistaken for the wine known as 'Vino Nobile di Montepulciano', which is actually made from Sangiovese around the town of Montepulciano in Tuscany.

Montepulciano the grape is known for being dark and rich and for pairing well with food (like most Italian varieties). The Delinquente Roko il Vagabondo Montepulciano is a fresh and lively version with a vibrant purple colour, flavours of fresh berries and spice, and stimulating acidity, thanks to two different parcels (one picked early, one with a bit more ripeness).

Enjoy it on its own or with any kind of Italian food. Tremendous value.

Smells like the combination of dark, brambly fruit and a giant tomahawk steak sizzling over charcoal… but with a violet floral, out in the meadow freshness to it. Crazy nice to smell. On the palate, soft dark fruit and chewy, drying tannin makes you yearn for red sauce – margarita pizza or pasta amatriciana.

The Montepulciano was harvested from two different patches on the Bassham Family Organic vineyard, on separate days about a week apart. Each pick was fermented separately and blended together just prior to bottling. The earlier pick carried a lovely tart acidity and green energy, usually associated with whole bunch fermented wines, while the later pick gives palate weight and the deeper fruit character for drinkability – the final blend bringing both parcels together in a really awesome way.
