Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC

Deep purple with a clear garnet edge. Good, full scent reminiscent of black plums. Fresh plums on the palate, nicely balanced by food-friendly acidity and soft tannins

This is an area  which goes from the Adriatic Sea Coast to the high Mountains of Gran Sasso (2910 mt. a.s.l.) and Maiella (2692 mt.a.s.l.) amongst the highest mountains of the Appennini Chain. Here the distance between the coast and the high mountains is no more than 40 km creating a micro-climate with sharp temperature excursions particularly suitable to the vine growing
