More about this wine from Abruzzo, Italy
While often confused with wines from the town of Montepulciano in Tuscany, the Montepulciano grape actually has nothing to do with the medieval citadel and is grown most happily further south in the Abruzzo region. Nestled between the Adriatic Sea and the Apennines Mountains, these vineyards produce an excellent representation of how versatile this grape can be. “Niro” actually means “black” in many Italian dialects, which is suitable for this wine’s super noir color.

This wine is like a drinkable campfire with silky, smooth smoke. There’s a warm and wet just-rained earthiness finished with charcoal notes. Dark fruit you found on the bushes that line horse stables and a medium body that will make you feel like your insides are made of wool.
