The 2017 Montepulciano D’Abruzzo is a smoking value. Complex notes of dried cherries, peppery herbs, cedarwood, and a touch of loamy earth all emerge from the glass, and it’s medium-bodied, with a wonderful sweetness of fruit, light tannins, and great balance. I don’t expect it to make old bones, but it’s a terrific drink today. Enjoy bottles over the coming couple of years.
