Emidio Pepe Montepulciano d`Abruzzo 1979 is a mature red wine from the Abruzzo region of Italy. Produced by Emidio Pepe, a pioneer in organic viticulture in the region, the wine reflects a commitment to traditional methods. This vintage showcases a blend of dark fruit characteristics, with notes of black cherry and plum, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. The wine was fermented using native yeasts and matured in concrete tanks, ensuring authenticity in its expression. A true collector`s item from a revered Italian winemaker.
Deep brilliant violet. Intensely perfumed aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, candied violet, spicecake, garrigue and exotic spices, along with a smoky mineral overtone that builds in the glass. Stains the palate with deeply concentrated red and dark berry liqueur, fruitcake, licorice pastille and lavender flavors that possess a compelling blend of richness and energy. The mineral note comes back strong on a strikingly long, penetrating finish shaped by velvety, steadily mounting tannins. This is the best example of this venerable domaine's work that I can recall drinking in its infancy, and it may measure up to their legendary 1959 and 1961 bottlings, which I first tried back in the late 1980s.
