Snag this amazing duo of Montepulciano at a stellar price!
The 2016 opens with a voluptuous nose of black currant, blueberries and violets seasoned with grey pepper. The iron-rich soils of the Texas High-plains gave this medium-body wine a complex mineral palate with cranberries, figs and a hint of orange peel. Pairs well with savory pork loin or lamb shank.
In contrast, the 2017 intros with a warm nose of dark cherry and raspberries with a hint of white pepper followed by a tart palate of cranberries and fresh plum. This medium-high body lingers with red currant and a spicy finish. Pairs well with hearty, savory dishes like meat-based soups or stews, beef bolognese, and most smoked or barbecue dry-rubbed meats, most pizzas, lasagna, and rich milk to semi-sweet chocolate or cheesecake.
PS - You'll want both these wines on your table Easter Weekend!
