Weeping Sands Montepulciano 09

$34.05 750 MLS

Obsidian ‘Weeping Sands’ Montepulciano 2009 (18.5-/20), at 14.85% alc, aged 10 months in 20% new oak, brilliant, translucent ruby red with purple hues to the colour, this had a beautifully aromatic, soft red berry nose, a little fresh ferment-esters and raspberry-drop confection showing. Wonderfully supple on palate, this was packed with plump, juicy red berry flavours with a subtle game note adding interest. The sweetness was enhanced by the lively acidity, and the alcoholic end note just adding warmth to the mouthfeel. This will drink well over 4-6 years. RC July 10

An almost syrah-like wine, with bright fruit and an elegant palate. Drink Monty with food and preferably a friend called Monty as well. 18/20 AC July 10
