Wine land VINEYARDS WITH PERGOLA AS GARDENS, WHICH EXTEND OVER 2,700 HECTARES IN AN IDEAL TERRITORY, ALWAYS DEDICATED TO THE PRODUCTION OF WINE. Our vineyards cover an area of 2,700 hectares, from the coastal slopes to the slopes of the mountains, in a typical Mediterranean, temperate climate, with significant temperature differences that determine optimal conditions for the accumulation of aromatic substances in the clusters. , giving rise to high quality grapes. Our production is concentrated exclusively on the typical and indigenous vines of the region, traditionally cultivated in pergola, with a vocation of experimentation in the field and in the cellar. Montepulciano Vine of medium vigour, late maturity, which prefers good exposure and temperate and dry climatic conditions. The trellising systems used are those with medium expansion and medium-short size. The wines obtained are characterized by a ruby red color, an ability to age, a fruity aroma and a dry and warm taste, with balanced tannins. TREBBIANO Of great vigour and constant production, he likes light, silico-calcareous soils, rich in frame and fresh. The short size promotes the regularity of production. The wine has a straw yellow color, it is light on the nose with fruity and floral notes, while on the palate it is dry, soft, harmonious with a slightly amandé aftertaste. PECORINO CHEESE The vigour is medium-low, the ripening period is early for this grape variety which prefers calcareous or clay soils. The grapes give rise to a deep yellow white and an intense straw yellow with greenish reflections, with good minerality and persistence. The scent evokes tropical fruits and white flowers - acacia, jasmine and broom - with notes that become spicy with the harvest of ripe grapes. PASSERINE From the vine, of great vigour and moderately late ripening, we obtain a wine that is distinguished by its straw yellow color with green reflections, the fruity and floral aroma, the full and dry taste. With good acidity, it also lends itself to sparkling wine and drying. COCCIOLA Grape variety with good and constant production, it prefers crops with medium expansion and medium size. The wine has a pale straw yellow color and a delicate aroma, with notes of spring white flowers and citrus scents. CERASUOLO From the white winemaking of Montepulciano grapes, after a brief contact with his skins during the pressing phase, another great classic of Abruzzo is born: cerasuolo. Its name derives from 'cerasa', cherry in the regional dialect, a fruit that Cerasuolo evokes both in color and in perfume with notes of violet, red fruits, raspberry and licorice. On the palate, it is full but lively, well balanced in acidity and with an almond aftertaste. It blends perfectly with tasty fish dishes, white meats and semi-ripened cheeses. Excellent with red pizza, poetry with fish broth.
