Red Wine	Score: ✧✧✭

The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of orange red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas which start with hints of cherry and plum followed by aromas of raspberry, blackberry, toasted wood, violet, vanilla and carob. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is pretty persistent with flavors of cherry and plum. This Rosso di Montepulciano is a kosher wine.
