Italian Red Blend

Italian Red Blends stand as a testament to the country’s rich winemaking diversity and heritage. Comprising a harmonious mix of indigenous and international grape varieties, these wines encapsulate the unique character of Italy’s diverse wine regions. Blends like Super Tuscans, combining Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, showcase a fusion of tradition and innovation. The Nebbiolo-based blends from Piedmont, such as Barbaresco and Barolo, exemplify elegance and longevity. Each region contributes distinct flavors, from the bold red fruits of the south to the structured tannins of the north. The artistry lies in winemakers’ hands, skillfully crafting blends that balance acidity, tannins, and fruit expression. Italian Red Blends offer a kaleidoscope of aromas, flavors, and textures, reflecting the country’s varied terroirs. Whether exploring a classic Chianti blend or a contemporary interpretation, these wines invite enthusiasts on a captivating journey through Italy’s winemaking mosaic.

Country

Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region

Tuscany

The central Italian region of Tuscany is widely understood to be one of the world's most famous and highly regarded wine regions. The beautiful rolling hillsides and medieval towns and castles which are a key feature of the area are also home to many of Europe's finest wineries, and extremely high quality vineyards growing the distinctive Sangiovese and Vernaccia grape varietals which are the flavorful backbone of Tuscany's wonderful red and white wines. For almost three thousand years, this region has been recognized as an ideal home for wine production on a large scale, and the ancient Etruscans, Greeks and Romans all noticed that fine grape varietals flourished on the unique soils and under the hot sunshine which typifies the area. Today, Tuscany is home to a wide range of wines, from the traditional to the complex, but all dedicated to excellent flavors and aromas, and maintaining the region's international reputation.

The 2024 A Quo is a terrific mid-tier wine in this range from Montepeloso. Dark-toned fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and licorice are pushed forward. A Quo offers an irresistible mix of bold fruit and vibrancy.

The 2024 A Quo, a blend of 45% Sangiovese, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Malvasia Nera, and the balance other varieties, pours a jeweled purple/ruby hue and is immediately appealing on the nose, with notes of Amarena cherry, dark stone, fresh herbs, and a strong sense of clarity and freshness. Medium-bodied, it offers a lightly chalky texture, refined tannins, refreshing acidity, and an approachable fruity profile. Aged for five months in older wood, it balances fruit and vibrant structure with ease. Drink 2026-2030.

The Montepeloso 2024 A Quo is a blend of 45% Sangiovese, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Malvasia Nera and 10% other complementary grapes, fermented in stainless steel and aged in second- and third-fill barrels. Lifted and energetic, the wine delivers bright fruit with touches of light spice and dried flowers, maintaining a lively, easygoing profile. Shaped by Suvereto’s coastal influence and mineral-driven soils, this bottling is intentionally primary and vibrant, engineered for immediate pleasure alongside a classic plate of spaghetti aglio e olio. Production totals 87,000 bottles.

Winery Notes

An assemblage predominantly of Montepulciano, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller portions of Marselan and Alicante Bouschet. Our A QUO is matured for twelve months in barriques, most of which are pre-used, and then for about nine months in the bottle. A QUO is Montepeloso's fresh young high-flier. The wine, characterized by early accessibility, is made using grapes from the more recent plantings which already epitomize the distinctive qualities of Montepeloso. Almost 60,000 bottles are produced every year.
