Viola Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2013

Straight fire. It’s been a few years since I have had this and once again this doesn’t disappoint. Real Italian river rock acidity with elegant cherries and red fruit. Lots of the acidity on this. Some definite natural figs after it sat for a bit. Highly highly recommended especially for the price point. — 5 years ago

As it aired out, the fig became dominant and the red fruit passed eventually. It was open for a long while and it’s structure fell apart (bit a big deal for an older wine). Interesting to note though. Right when I opened it up there wasn’t any of that fig but mostly red fruit and screaming acidity. Still love the wine especially for the price point!
