Produced from selected parcels of Monteulciano grapes grown in the Chieti province of Abruzzo, on southeast Italy’s Adriatic coast. This delicious wine comes from 15-20 year old vines trained using the ancient method of trellising, known as “pergola.” They are planted to clay-rich soils, hand-harvested and wild yeast fermented for 2 weeks on the skins in stainless tanks. After a light fining and filtering, the wine is bottled. It offers rich, bright plum and cherries, with a lip-smacking finish.

This wine is made with 100% Montepulciano – hand harvested in October, destemmed and crushed, then fermented in stainless under controlled temperature. Aged in stainless for almost a year then six months in the bottle.
These Montepulciano vineyards are located in Pianella, next to a small natural lake. The proximity to the lake allows the roots of the vines to stay humid even during the dry season. This freshness is found in the wine as it is aged in stainless to preserve this natural characteristic.
