The wine region of Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo
DOC of Abruzzo, first Italian appellation dedicated exclusively to rosé (2010). Montepulciano signature (min. 85%) in short maceration on pigmented skins. Signature serious structured rosés with signature notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, citrus and a spicy touch, round and fresh palate — often considered one of Italy's finest rosés.
The wine region of Abruzzo
Accessible, identity-driven Italian duo. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo as red: deep colour, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a gourmet finish, from everyday to age-worthy Riserva. Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOCG as a fleshy, fruity rosé (strawberry, pomegranate). Trebbiano d'Abruzzo as a straight white with citrus and white flowers, sublimated by a few cult producers (Valentini).
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
