Paride d'Angelo Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Italy 2020 Trousseau (Bastardo) mellow nutmeg and vanillaA rich Concord grape aroma blends with yeast and tar aromas. The medium bodied palate feels overly extracted, with a thick blackberry flavor wrapped in copious tannins. There is enough acidity to lend support and lift to it all, yet there's still a disjointed nature to the whole. Wine Enthusiast
