Very good wine, but not quite the equal of its peers from the same vineyard. A strong contender, but ultimately falls short in certain respects.

This Avignonesi Grandi Annate Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is a complex and bold red wine. On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe dark cherry, cassis, leather, forest floor, and earthy spices. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and dense, with intense flavors of sweet blackberry, black cherry, and plum, along with notes of licorice, baking spice, and earthy minerals. The finish is long and lingering, with a good balance of tannins and acidity. Overall, this is a delicious, well-crafted Vino Nobile di Montepulciano that will pair beautifully with grilled meats and flavorful pasta dishes.

Rich, full-bodied wine with a profound dark fruit character, its opulent aromas are undeniably impressive, with a lingering character on the tasting that is both beguiling and lengthy.
Caliua Bonadie
Complex and layered wine with a decadent profile of red fruit, cherry, and earthy notes, accompanied by a nuanced leather and clove undertone. The winemaker's assertion that this vintage is the best yet is well-founded, and I award it a 4.5/5 stars.

Avignonesi Grandi Annate Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is praised for its rich, full-bodied profile with layers of red and black fruit, leather, and oak. While some vintages like 2015 and 2016 are noted for their elegance and balance, others like 2003 faced issues such as corking. The wine's aging potential and complex flavors make it a favorite among enthusiasts, though opinions on sweetness and tannin structure vary.
