Tasting notes
The Montepeloso 2019 Eneo is Sangiovese, Malvasia Nera, Montepulciano and Alicante. You'll notice that the blend is different from the 2020 vintage. This wine is deeply saturated and rich with much more opulence and texture compared to the lower-priced wines in this portfolio. The Eneo comes after the A Quo and before the Gabbro on a ladder of intensity and fruit weight. This vintage is recognized by its dark fruit, almond, oak spice, balanced toast and smoky back-end notes. It will be nice to see how this wine evolves over the next 10 years. The alcohol is high at 15%. This is a 27,000-bottle production.

The 2019 Eneo is a wine of notable focus and drive. Black cherry, leather, tobacco, incense, smoke, dried herbs and gravel infuse the 2019 with striking layers of complexity. Firm but well-integrated tannins give the wine energy as well as proportion. There's a ton to like, but readers need to be patient, as the 2019 needs time to soften. This is an especially dark, at times somber, vintage of Eneo.
