The 2000 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Villa Gemma receives Masciarelli’s best juice, and its rich, ripe aromas, structured, savory, and mineral-rich palate, and solid, intense structure all suggest a wine with a good 15 years of life ahead. Importer: Masciarelli, Weymouth, MA; tel. (781) 335-6620

An intense red, with lots of spicy, almost raisiny plum and oak. Full-bodied, with solid tannins and a long, fruit-coated mineral finish. Very jammy. Needs time. Best after 2007. 500 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Select to Add
