Product Notes

Masciarelli Villa Gemma Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a lavish Italian wine that exudes sophistication and elegance. This ravishing red hails from the beautiful Abruzzo region, cultivated from Montepulciano grapes, creating a splendidly full-bodied flavour. Expect a concoction of ripe, dark fruits, enveloped in a complex undergrowth of robust spices, touches of liquorice and hints of cocoa. The wine boasts an engaging depth and remarkable persistence, wrapped up in soft velvety tannins for a harmonious finish. Villa Gemma Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is a luxurious, indulgent experience for every wine enthusiast, deserving of its frequent top rank in Italian wine lists.

Tasting Notes

This fills the senses with soaring notes of coffee, cigar box, thick black fruits, minerals, spice, currants - the whole sensory caboodle. Powerful on the palate yet somehow civilized (probably due to the bottle aging at the cellar) the Gemma is opaque with a rich, elegant and complex nose. The first impact gives both power and refinement, then the fruit appears followed by flavours of tar, cocoa beans, balsam and the classic liquorice.
