Montepulciano D'Abruzzo
dop
The vineyards for the production of this Montepulciano are located in Pianella, which has the characteristic to be positioned 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, elevated in stainless steel to leave unaltered this natural characteristic. After being selected and harvested by hand the grapes are taken to the winery to be destemmed and crushed and then set in stainless steel vats under controlled temperature for which only one delestage follows. The wine obtained is racked in stainless steel vats where it rests for almost a year to then age six months in bottle.
