In the glass

Full-bodiedFirm tanninMedium acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: cherry, plum, fresh raspberry

Palate: small red fruits

The estate's volume Montepulciano from Loreto Aprutino. Many violet shades, intense persistent aromas of cherry, plum and fresh raspberry, a palate rich in small red fruits, and a brief oak passage that leaves dense but unobtrusive tannin.

What it pairs with

  • Grilled sausages
    The tannin is dense but not invasive, which suits simple grilled pork.
  • Pasta with tomato and beef
    Red-fruit richness and freshness carry a straightforward ragu.
  • Semi-aged pecorino
    The wine has structure enough for a mid-aged sheep's cheese.
