99/100 Luca Maroni – Leading Italian Wine Critic

Receiving a massive 99 points from leading Italian wine critic Luca Maroni, you know this is going to be an impressive wine. Hailing from the Abruzzo region in Italy, which is famous for delivering those intense, fruity, balanced wines, this is the perfect choice for a night around the fire with some pizza or a slow cooked red meat dish.

Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"Amaranta Montepulciano d’Abruzzo is a cru wine obtained from Abruzzo’ s most important red grape, the Montepulciano. This wine represents our commitment to making the utmost of the spectacular terroirs and microclimates that Abruzzo region offers."

99/100 Best Italian Wine, Luca Maroni, Annual Italian Wine Guide 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Few other red wines in the world show off this style in which the sweetness of the fruit, with those of the balsamic spices so sweetly, vanilla-mentally minty, are so penetrated and balanced. At the base of this shining persuasion, a raw material of supreme concentration, an oenological transformation that nothing has dispersed of its original natural splendour. Integrity that is cleanliness and stainless splendour of its fruit of the forest, of concentration and palatal balance that is truly exceptional."

NZIWS Judges Comments (2019 Vintage)
"Wonderfully concentrated on the nose with a potpourri of aromas – think plum jam, dark smoky oak and saddle leather. It is inky and opulent with succulent dark fruit, an inviting savouriness, hints of dark orange chocolate and espresso with supple tannins and a long, lifted finish."
