La Piuma 2009 - Waitrose

A terrific little Montepulciano d'Abruzzo which is to say the least a bit more ripe and sexy than its Italian country wine designation might imply. This bottle of the 2009 really excels itself. Blind I'm sure I would mistake this for California merlot or similar and perhaps quite a good one. A step up from previous vintages - this is sweet, ripe, concentrated, smooth and round. Parker haters will hate it.

Anyway, a truly great bottle of vino-collapso with big tits available for less than a fiver on offer at Waitrose.

La Piuma 2009 - a controversial 7.5+/10 - l but I love it - Waitrose £4.69 on offer.
