'Nerone' Rosso Conero Riserva DOC 2003 Moncaro 75cl

13%abv. IWC - Silver 2007 & 2008, Gambero Rosso 'Due Bicchieri'. Plus a whole host of awards for previous vintages. 100% Montepulciano from the Marche region adjoining Tuscanny. Only the best, late maturing grapes from the Nerone vineyard are selected. 50% are then dried in small containers for a month while the rest are gently pressed. The juice is then fermented in small concrete vats to allow maximum skin contact. The wine is matured in small French barriques for 18 months then further aged in bottle for 12 months prior to release. Deep purple in colour with an intense nose. Supple tannins contribute to a rounded, full and delicious palate, dry on the finish. Delicious.
