The Story

The Torre Zambra Valle Maris Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2022 is a vibrant, expressive, and fruit-forward Old World red wine that beautifully captures the wild, coastal spirit of Italy's Adriatic-influenced hillsides. It pours a brilliant ruby red colour with distinct purple edges, lifting with an immediate, refreshing bouquet of tart blackberries, fresh thyme, and damp earth, seamlessly layered with complex undertones of wet stones, coffee grinds, and red berries with a hint of violet. On the palate, this medium-to-full-bodied red wine is remarkably smooth, juicy, and round, coating the mouth with pure, velvety intensities of ripe black cherries, sweet blackberries, and a dark chocolate finish that balance the naturally cool, intrigue-filled profile of the 2022 vintage. Vinified carefully in cement tanks and large oak barrels to maintain maximum fruit purity and structural crunch, it is driven by a balanced, food-friendly acidity and dense, polished tannins that carry into a clean, savory finish accented by a lingering touch of licorice and rustic spice.

Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with casual Italian or Mediterranean fare, including tomato-based pasta dishes with meat ragù, wood-fired mushroom pizzas, grilled pork chops, fire-grilled meats, Abruzzese-inspired dishes, gourmet beef burgers, and semi-hard or aged cheese boards.

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast 

The nose is fresh, cool and lightly herbaceous, with aromas of damp earth, wet stones, tart blackberries, coffee grinds and fresh thyme. Ripe black cherries and sweet blackberries define the palate, until a dark chocolate finish. Tannins are dense and polished, while acid sleekly outlines the palate of a wine that perfectly straddles the space between intrigue and simple pleasure.

91 Points - James Suckling

Aromas of brambles, blackcurrants, blueberries and eucalyptus followed by sandalwood, toast and a touch of dried wild herbs. Full-bodied with chewy yet fine-grained tannins. Compact and dense red but it lacks no energy. Give this more time to come around. Try after 2024.
