Intense, full-bodied, high-alcohol reds with a deep purple colour, supple tannins and an ample palate with moderate acidity, featuring signature aromas of ripe black fruits (blackberry, plum), spices and Mediterranean notes from the Levant. Productive. Once exported to Bordeaux in the 19th century to bolster blends, today marginal, surviving in a few heritage plots of the Spanish Levant. Indigenous Spanish black variety from Valencia and Catalonia, around Benicarló.

The wine region of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Italian star of accessible, structured reds (no link to the Tuscan town). Montepulciano grape (min. 85%): deep robe, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a juicy finish. Direct, fruity everyday style, or denser Riserva aged in barrel for cellaring.

The wine region of Abruzzo

Accessible, identity-driven Italian duo. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo as red: deep colour, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a gourmet finish, from everyday to age-worthy Riserva. Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOCG as a fleshy, fruity rosé (strawberry, pomegranate). Trebbiano d'Abruzzo as a straight white with citrus and white flowers, sublimated by a few cult producers (Valentini).
