The 2007 Minchia Montepulciano (100%) is purple/black in color with a brooding bouquet of blackberry and plum. On the palate it gives up a big mouthful of spicy, savory black fruit accompanied by enough structure to evolve for 3-4 years. It lacks complexity now but several years of cellaring is likely to change that situation. It should offer prime drinking from 2013 to 2022.
