Territory and wine style

The wine originates from the area of Villamagna/Vacri, in the province of Chieti, in Abruzzo, from vineyards located about 280 meters above sea level, on sandy-clay soils facing south and southeast. This is a vocated area, where the hilly influence and proximity to the sea contribute to creating mature and well-balanced grapes. The wine's style is consistent with the territory: intense, deep, and structured, with vinification aimed at enhancing the richness of the Montepulciano and aging in barrique that enriches its complexity.

Tasting notes

In appearance, it presents a dense and concentrated ruby red color. The bouquet is broad and enveloping, with hints of cherry in alcohol, blackberry, raspberry, and jam, followed by notes of dried flowers, sweet spices, cinnamon, cloves, coffee, dark chocolate, licorice, vanilla, and balsamic echoes. On the palate, the sip is warm, powerful, and full-bodied, supported by a robust yet integrated tannin and a long persistence, played on fruity, toasted, and balsamic returns. The result is a wine with a full, enveloping character and great presence.
