Vecchia Cantina Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano 2016

An impressive showing for this well-aged red. It spent 24 months in aged Slavonian oak casks and a further six months in bottle for a softer palate and matured flavour profile. The notes of black cherry, sun-dried tomato, tobacco and oregano ask to be paired with pasta and spicy sausage in a long-simmered tomato sauce.[Luca Maroni tasting note not available.] Score - 95.
