Description
This wine is made of 100% Montepulciano. We would pair this with stuffed shells with your choice of ground beef. Conero is a mountain by the coast in Marche that shields the grapes from the cooler northeastern winds. The result is a very unique terroir for Montepulciano and stands as the Nothernmost limit where these grapes can be grown. About half the juice is aged in large oak casks, and the other half in small barriques for 12 months, before being blended and bottle aged for 6 months. It showcases rich, pulpy red fruit and morello cherry on the palate, with silky tannins and a long finish.
