About this winery

Agricola Tiberio is located in the rugged Adriatic region of Abruzzo, where Cristiana Tiberio quickly built a reputation for the excellence of her wines produced on her family's 30-hectare estate.

Spicy to the core, the 2022 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wafts up with a blend of crushed cherries and wild berries, dusty violets, lavender and traces of incense. This is elegant in feel with silken textures and rich red and blue fruits. A crisp mineral sensation forms toward the close. The 2022 leaves the palate drenched in primary concentration, finishing with edgy tannins offset by a spike of residual acidity. Frankly, it's incredible that this is Tiberio's entry-level red, as the 2022 displays impressive depth and complexity. It's also a tremendous value. This is the total package.

Impenetrable violet crimson. Gorgeous concentrated blackberry fruit with iodine touches and a hint of morocco leather. Lashings of juicy blackberry fruit framed by firm but polished tannins. Everything melts together on the finish. Very long and focused
