Aromas & Style
Marasca cherry, dark berries and fine spice notes characterize the clear expression of this Montepulciano – powerful, structured and calm in style.
Origin & Craftsmanship
The grapes come from old vines in the hills of Abruzzo. The late harvest in early November and extended maceration give the wine depth and structure. The wine then matures for 24 months in barriques and a further 12 months in the bottle – a composition that shows serenity, time, and clear balance.
