The beastly and savage 2020 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Colline Teramane Neromoro tempts the imagination with its depths of crushed blueberry and blackberry offset by a whiff of ashen stones and a minty herbal resonance. Silken to the core and quite elegant, it washes across the palate with grace, leaving a crackling of minerals and an air of lavender toward the close. This finishes with a staining of red and black fruit, sweet tannins and a pleasant bitter twang that keeps the taster looking back to the glass for more.
