Tasting - Villa Cerrina Montepulciano d'Abruzzo



Name - Villa Cerrina Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Variety - 100 % Montepulciano
Region - Abruzzo
Country - Italy
Year - 2014
Price - $4
Winery Review - "Clear dark garnet. Fresh plums, a touch of dry cherry, a whiff of cranberry, and just a little dash of brown spice. Light-bodied on the palate with good flavor, plum and black-cherry fruit and mouth-watering acidity."
My Review - This rarely reviewed four-buck-chuck from Trader Joes didn't disappoint. Its displayed strong aromas of leather and cigars with compliments of cherry. On the palate, raspberry and plum paired with the spice of pepper was simple yet light and delicious. I would recommend this dry, tart wine.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
