Pietrame Edizione Limitata Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2022

Cherry and plum sauce, sweet sage and cocoa aromas combine as the 2022 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Pietrame Edizione Limitata smolders from the glass. This is round and cool-toned, with a cascade of violet inner florals that arch across its core of fresh blackberry fruit. Just gently tannic and with a pleasant tinge of citrus and chalk dust, the 2022 tapers off long and complex. This is wildly unique and full of energy. Drinking window: 2024-2030. Score – 90.
