Tasting notes
The 2007 Marina Cvetić Montepulciano d'Abruzzo S. Martino Rosso flows from the glass with layers of perfumed red fruit. This is an especially silky, refined Montepulciano that impresses for its textural elegance and long, polished finish. Sweet red berries, flowers and licorice wrap around the close. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. Masciarelli is a reference point producer for rich, internationally styled wines from Abruzzo. Richness and ripeness are pushed to the extremes here, but when the estate is firing on all cylinders the wines are undeniably beautiful. Readers will have to accept less varietal typicity for the lushness these wines offer. Importer: Masciarelli Wine Company, Weymouth, MA; tel. (781) 335-6620
