A monument from Montepulciano – and yet not a stylistic muscleman: Kurni is the expression of an uncompromising philosophy that aims for density, balance and expression rather than volume. The vines are deeply rooted in the clay-limestone soils of the southern Marche region, are meticulously tended and produce minimal yields. The hand-picked grapes undergo a long maceration period before the wine matures for 18 months in new French barriques.

Deep, dark ruby colour with a violet rim in the glass. The bouquet is broad yet focused: black cherry, blackberry, preserved plum, liquorice, clove, black tea, a hint of cedar and balsamic notes. Intense but controlled on the palate, with cool fruit and a supporting, ripe tannin structure. The acidity invigorates without being dominant and gives the wine an elegant character. The final is characterised by an almost graphite-like minerality and a hint of dark chocolate – complex, but not heavy. The 2023 vintage brings the contemplative side of Kurni to the fore: less as a statement, more as a deep drilling into the potential of the grape variety. Every sip is like an open layer, every new moment tells of concentration, patience and inner peace. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense purple red with ruby red reflections. Ripe, dark berry fruit, dark chocolate and earthy notes on the nose. Dense and supple on the palate, with a sweet melting flavour, fine, elegant tannins and impressive length." Falstaff
