So the "Best Italian wine of the year" is a Montepulciano from Abruzzo with the staggering score of 98/100. There's no hiding the impact that this variety is having on the Italian and international press and consumers alike and with this offering we are sure you will quickly understand why! The last 3 vintages have sold out in a matter of hours (seriously!) and this is the only place you can get it so do not muck around!

Il Rabdomante is about body, structure and ageability, using the best, ripest parcels of fruit from this incredible vineyard and crafting a wine of power without sacrificing balance or structure. A tour-de-force. Ruby red, intense and persistent fragrance; the bouquet is intense, fruity, persistent, with notes of dried flowers, spice, liquorice, macerated cherries. The palate is stylish, velvety, almost creamy, with a tannic structure that blends nicely with the alcoholic component. Great structure, complex, elegant, well balanced with a long aftertaste. Opulent fruit.

Feudi Bizantini is a young project founded by a group of wine lovers whom have joined their efforts to produce wines that show the best of the Abruzzo region. Here, all their wines show individual personality and are really approachable from the moment you open them. It is a wine that has made the history of modern Abruzzo wine-making. Today Montepulciano D’Abruzzo has emerged to the international limelight as one of the best quality red grapes in world.

Food Pairing: Ideal for roasts, game, strongly flavoured dishes and mature cheese.
