88 Points, The Wine Advocate, Monti?s cask-aged 2006 Montepulciano d' Abruzzo is a gem. A soft, seamless red, the wine flows from the glass with masses of fruit in a sumptuous, elegant style. Although this Montepulciano does not possess a ton of varietal character, it is awfully hard to argue with the sheer quality of what is in the glass. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2011.
