Thank god, then, that we have this delicious Montepulciano d'Abruzzo at £4.50 to replace it.
Excellent, cheap Montepulciano is normally a concentrated red with some residual sugar. This is no exception, Christ on a bike is this a good wine for £4.50 if you like it thick and sweet.
For Montepulciano lovers, this is not quite as cool as the Waitrose La Piuma 2009. I'd like to taste them side by side.
Asda Extra Special Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2008 6+/10 £4.50
But 7.5/10 if you like it thick and sweet like Parker.
