Tasting Notes

Worthy of founder Dante Marramiero’s dream, from a single vineyard of great character comes Inferi, Montepulciano D’Abruzzo. Shimmering red color, with darker sparkling reflections. On the palate it’s ample and smooth, with rich berry fruit supported by smooth sweet tannins that have vanilla-laced bitterness more than acidity, and flow into a clean rather sour berry fruit finish with lasting bitterness. Pleasant in an international key, and if you like the style, which is powerful and fruit driven, you will enjoy it. Considerably, and it also has the capacity to age well for a decade or more. Aging: 1 year in stainless steel, 1 year in French and Slovenian oak barrels and 6 months in bottles before release. One of my all time favourite wines, every vintage!
