Product Notes

Antinori Prunotti Mompertone Monferrato DOC wine hails from Italy's vibrant northeastern wine region. This smooth, well-balanced, and full-bodied red wine gracefully unites the rich flavours of Syrah and Barbera. It opens with inviting intense fruit aromas, leading to an opulent palate that presents hints of blackberry, plum, and subtle spices. Accompanied by softened tannins and a lovely persistence on the finish, this wine promises a gratifying experience. It is an elegant representation of the Monferrato terroir and a testament to the craftmanship of the venerated Antinori family. It pairs delightfully with a variety of dishes and cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Mompertone is a deep ruby red color with violet highlights. The nose is rich in aromas of plums and cherries that blend with notes of violets, spices and coffee. The palate is mouth filling rich in tannins that are elegant, supple and persistent.
