Zonin, Montepulciano D’Abruzzo, Italy, 2007, $8.99

This medium bodied, silky smooth Italian is exactly what a Montepulciano (monte-pool-chiano) should be. There’s bright fruit on the nose, consisting mainly of fresh raspberries, with under tones of soft oak. Its the epidamy of easy drinking, (no big oak or boisterous fruit here), with juicy plum on the palate, gliding over your tongue, caressing your  taste buds. Enjoy it all by itself or pair it with wild game, lightly seasoned with Italian herbs of course!
