An exclusive 95-point find grown in the under-the-radar Abruzzo region and aged six years in bottle, the 2016 Orlandi Contucci Ponno Colline Teramane Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is the ultimate dinnertime wine. From a vastly underrated region that flies under the American wine radar, this seldom-seen jewel delivers a level of quality that the marquee regions struggle to match at this price!
Deep ruby in appearance, with touches of garnet near the rim. Vibrant, effusive aromas of mushroom, cooked game, wet earth, freshly chopped oregano, turned earth, stewed red strawberry and black raspberry, rose petals, fresh red plums, and violets. Powerful and bold on the palate, with ripe, grippy tannins, juicy acidity, and rich flavors of bergamot, cedar chest, toasted espresso beans coated in chocolate, puréed red raspberry, and piles of red and white florals. Envision yourself on a sun-drenched seaside piazza in Pescara or Montesilvano on the Adriatic coast as the opulent finish washes over you. Drink now–2040.
