A festive and affordable red.
Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC 2020 is one of the better wines at this price point. It’s a well-crafted red and perfect for the holiday season, working with beef as well as robust vegetarian options. Tesco offer good quality wines in their Tesco Finest range and this one fits in well – it doesn’t disappoint.
Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is a full-bodied red and will be perfect to accompany richer meals over the festive season. Keep the fresh whites for the turkey, but many of us enjoy red meat or a game pie for gatherings before and around Christmas and the New Year.
Classic expressions
The grapes for this iconic wine variety are grown in the celebrated vineyards in the Abruzzo hills, along the Adriatic coast. This bottle displays all the classic expressions of the Montepulciano grapes. It has a deep red appearance, is full of red fruit and ideal paired with wintertime dinners. It’s suitable for vegans so will work with non-meat dishes too. The acidity of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo enhances strong cheeses too – even vegan cheese – making this a great-value all-rounder.
