The wine region of Colline Pescaresi
Abruzzo IGT (Pescara), clay-limestone hills between Apennines and Adriatic, temperate climate cooled by the sea. Liberal regulation from dry white to sparkling. Signature Montepulciano as ruling red: deep and fruity with black cherry, plum, blackberry, liquorice, herbs and spice, round tannins and meaty palate. White Pecorino star: taut and aromatic (pear, citrus, white flowers, salt).
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: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
