Today's Wine Tasting Note

Dei 1996 Rosso di Montepulciano ($9.99)
Dark ruby with a reddish-orange glint at the edge. Appetizing spicy oak and ripe blueberry fruit aromas lead into a full and juicy fruit flavor, soft and fresh; black cherry, plum and apple-skin, structured with sufficient acidity for balance. A little short, but still a very pleasant wine and a good value. U.S. importer: Vintner Select, Cincinnati; A Marc de Grazia Selection. (Oct. 9, 1998)

FOOD MATCH: A natural partner with a pan-grilled T-bone.

Previous day's wine note

All my wine-tasting reports are consumer-oriented. In order to maintain objectivity and avoid conflicts of interest, I purchase all the wines I rate at my own expense in retail stores.
