Vini Rabasco 'Rosso Cancelli' Montepulciano 2021 | Abruzzo, Italy

A savoury Montepulciano from Abruzzo.

Aromatic scents of rose, pomegrante, and wild red berries. Deliciously delicate on the palate, with fine tannin, vibrant saline acidity, and light and dry. Fresh red berries, seaside minerality, a lovely earthy quality, resulting in a delightfully savoury sip.

NERD NOTES

The grapes come from a single vineyard called “Cancelli”, 450m above sea level in the commune of Loreto Aprutino in the province of Pescara. The vineyard covers 4 hectares and the vines are all over 40 years of age and benefits from the Gran Sasso Mountain on one side and the Adriatic Sea on the other.

Fermentation occurs spontaneously through indigenous yeasts and without temperature control in cement tanks. After fermentation is complete the wine is transferred to stainless steel tanks for ageing.
