A great bottle of Pepe. Big and generous. Soulfulness abounds. #oneofthegoodguys

Bottle variation has been a constant with this producer. This was the oldest vintage I have had and the least impressive.

I drank it and you didn't Lucky me

Definite browning,.. trending aroma notes of savory and herbal...still vibrant and alive. We ordered this wine with the best Italian cheese board I’ve had...amazing match with funky robiolo, gorganzola, and 7 year old pecorino. Mediam weight, bone-dry, with a one-minute finish. You either love mature wines or not... on this day history rings through and life is indeed, good!

This is not Frank, as I am only 39...when I was five I didn't have a clue about Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. But since then I have had the pleasure to spend many a months in Italy and love this grape. This evening I had the pleasure of enjoying a 1982 from Emidio Pepe. The first thought I had was pepper bouquet and a long finish! I have enjoyed this wine, not just because of the company but for the artful aging. Thank you For and and Victoria!

Rustic, slight tannins, earthy and nutty notes, light bodied and very interesting
