About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

In Abruzzo, the grapes grow in a Mediterranean climate on clay soils rich in calcium and iron. These conditions contribute aroma to the fruit.

Grapes

Montepulciano is native to Italy and is grown in 20 of the country’s 95 provinces.

Vinification

The wine undergoes gentle vinification in steel tanks to preserve the grapes’ aroma.
