Terre di Poggio Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Laude 2012

Name: Terre di Poggio Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Laude 2012
Variety: Montepulciano d’Abruzzo
Region: Abruzzo
Country: Italy
Year: 2012
Price: $8.95
Review: "This opens with dark aromas of leather, tobacco, cured meat, plum and prune. It shows soft tannins and loads of dark fruit on the finish." - Vintage Cellar

This was definitely a strong plum flavor with both a leather polish and peppery overpowering taste.  Rougher mouthfeel and a bit too much like a cat's sandpaper tongue.  6/10 would get again.
