Reviews and Ratings

Niro 2015 is great value under $20. This Montepulciano D'abruzzo from the Abruzzo wine region is smoky with black cherry, blueberry, espresso and vanilla flavours on the palate. Good acidity for rich grilled fare like grilled sausages, marbled steak and venison chops. - Community Wine Reviews
