The wine region of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Italian star of accessible, structured reds (no link to the Tuscan town). Montepulciano grape (min. 85%): deep robe, intense aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, sweet spices and balsamic notes, round tannins and a juicy finish. Direct, fruity everyday style, or denser Riserva aged in barrel for cellaring.


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: Acescence

An alteration in wine also known as pitting (hence the expression piqué wine), due to the presence of acetic acid and ethyl acetate, and characterized by a vinegar-like odor.
