Brick-amber-garnet colour showing some maturity although not uncharacteristic of this primarily Montepulciano blend...
This mid-weight montepulciano (with a splash of merlot) has a fine nose with an even confluence of oak mocha, dried...

Very dark colour which announced it would be heavier than other Montepulciano wines. Still has a tannic edge to it (but no more greenness), which went away after 30 minute of decanting. Nice complexity to this wine and decent long finish. Tasted April 2014.
The 2006 Vitalonga Terra Di Confine is a medium bodied wine with nice aromas of integrated black cherry, pine, oak and vanilla. It is tannic (decant for longer than 1 hour) and with a nice long finish. For tannin lovers - drink now, other people should cellar it for 2-3 years at least and it will age nicely for 10+ years. My impression: NICE to BEAUTIFUL, 90 pts - a recommended buy. Tasted Aug/11.
