Fonte Cupa Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2013

Abruzzo, Italy

Fonte Cupa Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a beautiful red wine from Camillo Montori, a wine estate with a long family tradition of winemaking in Abruzzo. The Montori Estate covers 80 hectares, of which 50 are planted to vines. Fonte Cupa is 100% Montepulciano from the hills of the municipal territory of Controguerra.

Fonte Cupa Montepulciano d'Abruzzo has a very concentrated ruby color. Intense, lingering, varietal nose with undertones of oak layered with licorice and vanilla. Excellent structure which gives a full-bodied, rounded palate. Characteristic, bitter-almond finish. Aged in oak barrels for 18 months followed by 6 months' bottle ageing.

Enjoy Fonte Cupa Montepulciano d'Abruzzo over the next 8-10 years with a grilled steak, osso buco, lasagna, and aged cheeses.
