The Il Picchio Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a characterful red wine that beautifully reflects the strength and authenticity of the Montepulciano grape. Although the grape is often confused with the Tuscan wine Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, it has an identity all its own. This wine shows why Montepulciano has been loved for generations: a combination of ripe fruit, soft power and pleasing accessibility. The result is a wine with a warm, Mediterranean character and excellent value for money.
In the glass, the wine presents itself with a deep ruby red colour. The bouquet is characterised by intense aromas of ripe cherries, blackcurrants and subtle earthy nuances. On the palate, the wine is fruity, supple and balanced, with soft tannins that provide structure without harshness. Beneath the ripe fruit there are spicy accents and a slight earthy touch that add depth. The long finish is carried by a nice balance between fruit, spiciness and elegance.
This versatile red wine pairs excellently with grilled beef, lamb dishes, game, hearty pasta dishes and extra mature cheeses. Thanks to its approachable style and rich flavour profile, it is suitable for everyday enjoyment moments as well as elaborate dinners. A classic Montepulciano that perfectly combines power, charm and drinking pleasure.
