2010 Illuminati Pieluni, Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane Riserva DOCG, Italy (750ml)

“Dark and penetrating, the 2010 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Colline Teramane Riserva Pieluni is a wonderful interpretation of Abruzzo’s mighty red grape.This wine is packed tight with intensity and long- lasting flavor.You get sharp notes of black fruit, spice, dark chocolate and tobacco.This is an elegant and articulate red wine with soft consistency and a very likable style that is both forthcoming and layered. Riserva Pieluni ages in barrique for two years. It should con- tinue to evolve in your cellar over the course of the next decade”.
