An enoteca on Via Cesare Battisti in Pescara that opens for the morning trade and again from half past five for tasting, and is one of the few in the city that serves on a Sunday evening.
The list: A wine shop that pours as well as sells, with an evening tasting service that runs to ten o'clock including Sundays.
Tip: Sunday evening is the gap in Pescara. This is one of the few wine addresses in the centre that is open then.
Address: Via Cesare Battisti 116, 65122 Pescara, Italy, Abruzzo
A wine shop and bar on Corso Trento e Trieste, the pedestrian spine of Lanciano, in the part of Chieti province that produces the bulk of Abruzzo's wine.
The list: A wine address on the main corso of Lanciano, in the inland Chieti belt that carries most of the region's cooperative volume.
Tip: Lanciano sits above the Trabocchi coast, so an evening here pairs with a day on the Via Verde cycle path below.
An organic estate at Caldari di Ortona, certified by ICEA since its 1988 conversion, that combines the cellar with accommodation and a restaurant above the Trabocchi coast.
The list: Tastings, cellar visits and retail sales on site, with rooms and a restaurant at the estate so an evening tasting does not need a drive home.
Tip: Because the estate has rooms, this is one of the few places in Abruzzo where a long evening tasting is practical rather than a designated driver problem.
A Bolognano winery in the Casauria corridor, known for the vine shoot tied to the neck of its bottles and for the contemporary art placed through its grounds.
The list: Booked visits and tastings at a Bolognano winery founded in 1978, with a sculpture collection in the grounds.
Tip: The art walk is the reason to come at the end of the day rather than the middle. Book the visit rather than turning up at the gate.
An organic farm in the Atri badlands about eight kilometres from the sea, with tented suites in the olive grove and terracotta fermented whites to drink beside them.
The list: Amphora fermented Trebbiano and Pecorino from an organic farm, tasted on site where the consortium lists the Cirelli Farm Glamping.
Tip: Michela Cirelli's tented suites sit in the olive grove rather than the vineyard, which is why the evenings here are quiet.
A wine bar and kitchen on Via Garibaldi, the late street of L'Aquila's historic centre, opened in 1999 by the Stratta brothers. Steakhouse plates, pizza and filled panini until one in the morning.
The list: A bottle list the Stratta brothers describe as di primissima scelta, with sparkling wines and spirits from outside Italy alongside the Abruzzo range.
Tip: Via Garibaldi is where the city drinks late. Four more places on the same 200 metres stay open past one, so start here and walk.
A wine room on Piazza Santa Giusta pouring loose wine and bottles with panini, piadine, charcuterie and cheese boards and bruschette. It also hosts tastings and private events.
The list: The house describes ottimi vini sfusi e in bottiglia, wine by the carafe as well as by the bottle, with tastings run on request.
Tip: Wine by the carafe is close to extinct in Italian city centres. This is the cheapest way in L'Aquila to drink Montepulciano by the glass all evening.
