The 2007 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Vigne Nuove is a fresh, vinous offering loaded with plummy dark fruit. It offers excellent balance and tons of style, especially at this price point. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. I always look forward to tasting the wines of Valle Reale. These are wines of notable personality and character. Readers should also be on the lookout for the Valle Reale Cerasuolo Vigne Nuove, which is consistently one of Italy’s finest roses.A Leonardo Lo Cascio Selection, Winebow, Montvale, NJ; tel.
