Avignonesi 2005 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano

Country: Italy /
Variety: Prugnolo Gentile Tuscany
Winery: Avignonesi / Vino Nobile di Montepulciano

This is a dense, thickly extracted Vino Nobile with aromas that recall new fruit—fresh, red cherry and ripe blueberry—and new wood, such as vanilla and carpentry shavings. It tastes very new, almost too new for a 2005, and lacks the deep penetrating complexity you should otherwise expect from this beautiful part of Tuscany. It’s easy and very fruity in the mouth.
