Tasting - Cortenova Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Name: Cortenove
Variety: 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Region: Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $6.95

Critic Review:  100% Montepulciano d' Abruzzo. Deep ruby red color with violet highlights and a pleasant and fruity bouquet. Full bodied, soft tannins and good acidity. Excellent with pasta dishes and red meats.

My Review:  This wine was fantastic.  It was a very dark red wine that had a great balance of acidity.  I did not have this wine with any food, but i can see it going well with a steak.
