Vino Dei Fratelli Montelpulciano D’Abruzzo 750 ML

Introduction

On the nose, chocolate, black cherries and grilled meat with herbs give way to a palate of even juicer cherries and still more savory notes: freshly tilled soil, wild herbs, underbrush, and some milk and dark chocolate that settles into the chalky tannins. Producer Information The Fratelli label shows an ancient Roman coin struck in 46 BC depicting two of the most famous Fratelli brothers in the Roman religion. Castor and Pollux fell in love with beautiful sisters who were already betrothed to suitors. The brothers challenged and slew their rivals, but Castor was mortally wounded. In the end, Zeus (Roman name Jupiter) placed both their immortal souls together in the sky as symbols of brotherly love. Today we refer to them as the constellation Gemini.
