Oasi degli Angeli Kurni 2017 is a rich, full-bodied Montepulciano from Italy`s Abruzzo region. Cultivated in the estate`s unique microclimate, the grapes benefit from intense sunlight, lending the wine profound concentration. Expect layers of dark fruit, cocoa and hints of balsamic notes. The wine’s ample tannins are substantial without overshadowing its inherent sweetness. Established in 2002 by winemaker Marco Casolanetti, Oasi degli Angeli is known for its unconventional approach, focusing on minimal intervention to express the true nature of the land.

Vinous
The 2017 Kurni captivates with a seductive bouquet full of cloves and exotic spices that give way to dusty dried roses, sweet plum and cherry sauce. It’s undeniably elegant, casting velvety waves of ultra-ripe red and black currants across the palate, as a concentration of primary fruit penetrates deeply; yet, through it all, the experience remains almost impossibly vibrant. Cinnamon, mocha, bacon-wrapped figs and sweet tobacco resonate throughout the long and remarkably fresh finale, where a coating of fine-grained tannins leave an impression of utter refinement. The Kurni is a polarizing Montepulciano made from partially dried grapes followed by refinement in 200% new French barriques for anywhere from twenty-four to thirty months prior to bottling. Don’t come here looking for varietal purity, but do come here looking for an experience-wine full of unbridled pleasures. Eric Guido1st October 2021
