Description

Bove Avegiano Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2015

The Avegiano Montepulciano from Bove is a soft and approachable style of wine showing plum flavours combined with a little coconut and vanilla. It pairs wondefully with grilled lamb chops, stews and game dishes. This is a meeium bodied wine with soft integrated tannins that change when the wine is decanted, which we highly recommend.

Cantina Bove was established in 1930 and has since modernised the winery, which now boasts a high-tech bottling plant. The estate comprises 60 hectares of well situated vineyards and under the watchful eye of oenologist Dr Vittorio Festa, the vinification techniques ensure the production of the highest quality wines from low yields, with rigorous grape selection and refined ageing in oak barrels.The Bove style is to make well textured, mellow red wines showing good typicity and white wines that are fruity and full of character.

Vinification
The grapes were carefully selected in the vineyard. Extended skin maceration. Fermentation in temperature controlled tanks. The wine was aged for 4-6 months in 25HL oak casks followed by a further 4 months in bottle prior to release

Viticulture
Vines are Vertical Trellis trained.

Tasting Note
Red berries and wild strawberries with elegant notes of wood on the finish. A well-structured and harmonious red wine with a lingering finish.

Everyday Serving Suggestion
Serve at room temperature opening the bottle 1 hour prior to pouring with grilled lamb chops, stews, game and mature cheese

FAQ'S

Can you explain your shipping charges?

We charge the amount the courier charges us to deliver the wines. In the majority of cases this is £10.00 for a dozen wines. For local delivery we charge £5.00 as we can often do this ourselves, by local we mean Milton Keynes.

Couriers charge by weight and size and a case of wines is both heavy and bulky and so the costs are fairly high. The charges are the same if you are buying 1 bottle or 6 bottles but they change if you go over 6 bottles due the the excess weight and size. Couriers also charge a fee to cover fuel excess and this all goes towards the total cost not to mention the 20% VAT to be added to everything.

Currently if someone orders a dozen wines they are charged £10.00 but if they order 24 bottles the charge is the same!

If you wish to have your wines shipped to other countries the costs are extreemly high and often not worth paying for. The cost for example to ship to the USA for a dozen wines would be £100.00 for the shipping alone! Therefore we have taken the decision not to ship any wines outside of the UK.

What is your minimum order?

The minimum order is 1 bottle! I prefer it if people order more and you get better value with the delivery if you do this too!

What if I want to send wine as a gift?

No problem, we will send to your preferred address and even include a card free of charge!

We have two kinds of cards a blank one and a Thank you one. However if you want a Valentines one or a birthday card or anyother type of card please let us know. We will write your personal greeting and even include the soppy stuff. We don't charge for the cards as its our way of thanking you for choosing us to send a gift to your loved one.

What about a discount?

I may be able to take a little off the price if you ask nicely and there is a large enough order. Please do not ask for a discount on any orders under 12 bottles. Email me with your requirements and I will let you know if I can do anything. However the best way to get a discount is to sign up for the newsletter as there is often special offers given away to newsletter subscribers.
