Purple Hands Oenotri Montepulciano 2022 is a collaborative Montepulciano that blends Purple Hands’ fruit-forward approach with Oenotri’s Italian winemaking influence. It presents a dark ruby color with aromas of ripe plum and blackberry, a medium-plus body, and bright, food-friendly acidity. Smooth tannins and a savory finish make it approachable now and pair well with grilled meats, pasta with tomato sauce, and aged cheeses.
