Reviewed June 2026The 2022 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colle Vota is darkly alluring and pleasantly earthy. A beguiling bouquet of crushed ashen stones and smoky grilled herbs gives way to crushed blackberries and ground cloves. This is elegant in feel, like liquid cashmere on the palate, with brisk acidity supporting its notable weight as tart wild berry fruits slowly saturate. This finishes youthfully firm and structured, with nuances of licorice and edgy tannins that add a crunchy sensation. This vintage of Colle Vota will require patience.

Notes
The 2022 Tiberio "Colle Vota" Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a brilliant, intellectual paradigm shift for the appellation, completely stripping away the heavy, extracted, and oak-laden stereotypes of the variety. Sourced from a tiny 1.6-hectare massale selection block planted in 2000 on limestone and marly-clay over sandstone in Cugnoli, this unique biotype yields smaller berries with thick, crunchy skins. Cristiana Tiberio handles this fruit entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel with spontaneous fermentation and zero oak contact, preserving a rare, high-altitude alpine-maritime clarity.
