The 2007 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Rosso del Duca is a dark, powerful Montepulciano. Jammy dark fruit, smoke, licorice and spices are some of the notes that emerge in this fairly intense, full-throttle wine. Rich and weighty through to the finish, the Rosso del Duca will be at its finest with similarly intense foods. Grilled meats seem an obvious match made in heaven. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015.
