Tasting Notes

A richly fruited, smooth-sipping Montepulciano from Abruzzo — organic, estate-grown, and shockingly good value. Full-flavoured, easy to love, and built for the dinner table.

• Juicy dark cherries, ripe plum, and dried herbs
• A touch of chocolate, baking spice, and gentle oak
• Smooth and dry, with soft tannins and a warming, layered finish

Pair with pizza, pasta, cold nights, or the last ten minutes of your patience. Big enough to hold its own, soft enough to pour freely. A weeknight wine with weekend depth.

Producer: Colle Corviano
Region: Loreto Aprutino, Pescara - Abruzzo, Italy
Grapes: Montepulciano

Colle Corviano is a young, family run winery located in the mountainous Italian region of Abruzzo. Owners Antonella di Tonno and Rodrigo Redmont tend 30 hectares of vineyards situated on the left side of the Tavo Valley, between the towns of Loreto Aprutino (opposite Valentini, who processes their olives for them) and Collecorvino. All their fruit is estate grown without irrigation and their vineyards are farmed sustainably with an approach that promotes biodiversity. Built on renewable energy, their approach is in tune with the overall ethos of Abruzzo, a rugged region that has 4 designated national parks and is one of the greenest corners of Europe. Antonella and Rodrigo believe that sustainability goes beyond farming practice, crossing through human resources to the heart of how the business conducts itself.

In 2019, star enologist Paolo Benassi, known from his work in Alto Piemonte at Tenuta Sella (Lessona), joined the company. His skill and dedication has taken the project to a whole new level, translating to bright wines with pure fruit profiles. Colle Corviano represents immense value across their authentic range.
