Ilauri Bajo Montepulciano

The Flavor Profile

• The Look: It pours a deep ruby red featuring distinct violet undertones.
• The Nose: You will find an intense bouquet centered around ripe red and dark fruits—like black cherry, plum, and blackberry—layered with a hint of potting soil, black pepper, and sweet oak spices.
• The Palate: It is medium-bodied, juicy, and "light on its feet". It offers a crunchy fruit profile balanced by lively acidity and a fine, soft layer of tannins.
• The Finish: Clean and fruit-forward with a pleasant, earthy, peppery fade.
