Tiberio, Montepulciano d’Abruzzo, Abruzzo, Italy, 2022

Sourced from a mix of older and younger vines, this has the variety's classic plummy and chocolatey character at its core, wrapped up in a really fresh and zippy jacket, lively and finessed. Dark berries and cherries with chocolate and herbs lead to some salted plum and silky tannins. Delicious!
