A phenomenal wine, Colle Volta is a unique example of both place and grape variety that is renowned for its elegance as it develops into a new biotype of Montepulciano. In-depth detail on this regal wine HERE.
From a 1.6 hectares of massale selected Montepulciano planted in 2000 at 350 metres to limestone and marly-clay over sandstone. Spontaneously fermented for 20 days in temperature controlled stainless steel. Aged in tank and then a few months in bottle before release. Unfined, unfiltered.
“Wildly perfumed and elegant from the first tilt of the glass, the 2021 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colle Vota wafts up with a bouquet of confectionary spices, dusty dried flowers, incense and dried strawberries. This is graceful and lifted in feel, with chalky mineral tones and woodland berries propelled by tantalizing acidity. A savory herbal tinge lingers through the long and tannic finish as the Colle Volta tapers off with tremendous length and a resonance of lavender pastille. It's a radiant Montepulciano built for the cellar.” 96 points - Eric Guido, Vinous
“Good deep, bright red. Knockout aromas and flavours of dark fruits, violet, licorice, menthol and flint. Dense but seamless, with wonderfully precise broad, palate-staining red fruit and mineral flavours. Offers a texture of liquid velvet but also boasts a light touch that is very Colle Vota. The long aftertaste features fine-grained tannins, wonderful class and depth.” 95 points - Ian D’Agata, Terroir Sense
