Awesome value from Italy!
Farnese Fantini Montepulciano D’Abruzzo DOC
- Farnese's massively popular, awesome value Montepulciano red from Abruzzo in Italy!
- It's pronounced "mon-ta-pull-channo"
- A medium bodied red - juicy, bright red fruit flavours, it's highly drinkable!
You might remember this label used to have lycra-clad cyclists on the bottle (Farnese were the sponsors of the Giro D’Italia cycle race). They’ve ditched the men in tight shorts and gone for a much better modern, stylish looking label.The good news is the juice behind the label is as good as ever too.
Always a cracker of a wine, it’s medium bodied, juicy and bright that works magic with food – pizza, pasta, meat or cheese!
Pronouncing Italian wine names can be a bit of a mouthful, but don’t let it put you off!
