Tasting - Cortenova

Name: Cortenova
Variety: Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Region: Abruzzo
Country: Italy
Year: 2013
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Wild berry, chopped mint, sun baked earth and violet aromas meld together on this solid savory red. The juicy straightforward palate doles out ripe black cherry, crushed raspberry, anise and cinnamon alongside chewy tannins.

My Review: One of the most significant flavor and aroma of this wine is mint. Along with mint, this wine feels like full of herbal and earthy ingredients. The wine is very tasty, and it is a bit dry.

I did not consume any food with this wine.
