Emidio Pepe Description

  • Benchmark producer of Montepulciano and Trebbiano d’Abruzzo
  • Pioneer of Biodynamic winemaking in Italy
  • No oak used at all in the winemaking process – fermentations in cement and then aged in bottle
  • Red grapes are crushed by hand, white grapes are crushed by foot
  • These are some of the most ageworthy, legendary wines in Italy

Vinous: 96 Points

Nearly impenetrable inky ruby color. Deep, brooding aromas of black cherry, violet, tar, shoe polish and botanical herbs. Sweet/sour flavors of black cherry, blueberry juicy, minerals and ink are complicated by a dusting of botanical herbs. This multilayered knockout of a wine finishes very bright and long, with repeating floral lift. Very clean and precise, and devoid of any funky animal aromas or flavors, it’s one of the best red wines from Pepe in years and a testament to the potential greatness of the Montepulciano grape.
