In all our production this is certainly the most versatile wine, deriving from the piedmont and hillside vineyards of Montepulciano, where the temperature changes, the exposure and the right harvest time make this wine express a good acidity and, at the same time, a structure worthy of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. Every year our greatest effort is to select the most suitable grapes for the production of Cerasuolo, distinguishing them from those that will later be chosen for red vinification. In 2010 Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo was the first rosé wine to be recognized as a DOC (Controlled Designation of Origin). To the eye, Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo presents very intense and bright cherry pink shades. On the palate, however, its fruity and spicy notes are appreciable with a structure approaching the one of a red. The nose shows delicate notes of raspberry, pomegranate, cherry, geranium and carnation, with a delicately spicy undertone.
Matchings: grilled white meats, medium-aged cheese, shellfish, and – why not – even vegetables. A companion to a thousand events, it can be with us throughout the year, from the warm days spent in the summer sun to the rosy sunsets of autumn.
Serving temperature: 8-10 degrees

$16.00SoldThe origin of the name “Pinot” comes from the French word “pin” “pino,” in Italian. The shape of its cluster reminds a small pine tree, a characteristic common to all “Pinot” wines. Although it is often vinified in white, we preferred a short maceration of the skins that give this wine its typical coppery color, also called “onion skin”. In addition to the coloring, this oenological choice of ours promotes a greater aromatic complexity improving the structure of this wine, while still maintaining a distinct flavor and good acidity, capable of balancing an alcoholic content that is difficult to find in white wines.
Matchings: because of its high alcohol content, we recommend it with seafood dishes, shellfish or cod, but also with woodland scents and thus small game, mushrooms, cheese and white meats. Enjoy it cold between spring and summer as a cool-down after a long day of hiking in the mountains, or at room temperature during the early autumn chill.
Serving temperature: 8-12 degrees

$16.00Pecorino is a white grape variety native to the region Marche, that over time has spread to southern Italy. In Abruzzo, Pecorino has found excellent environmental conditions, essential for making quality wines. According to the legend, its name comes from the pastoral tradition: it was the wine of shepherds. Other bizarre theories, however, speculate that its bunches shape resembles a sheep’s head, or imagine sheep particularly fond of these sweet grapes. Its fruity notes are sumptuous and warm, with hints of yellow flowers. Some mineral, iodine and herbal notes such as thyme and marjoram can not be missed. After various researches, studies and attempts in vineyards as in the cellar, we managed to obtain a Pecorino wine characterized by a strong acidity and a wide structure, marked also by the fact these grapes in vineyards undergo a high temperature range.
Matchings: blue cheese, dried fruits, legumes and especially fish. There is nothing better than popping it for an aperitif overlooking the sea in our beautiful Abruzzo region. Not having it while you chill under a beach umbrella is impossible. Matched with peach and mint it is a guarantee, try it to believe. Pair it with summer fruit… it’s sangria party time!

Pinot Grigio
$16.00Although it is not indigenous to Abruzzo, this is a grape variety which immediately impressed us with the way it expressed itself, both in the field and during our winemaking trials. We love this wine because it succeeds in being a valid alternative to Montepulciano, as its characteristics – such as sweetness and acidity – merge into a lovable and elegant wine. To the eye, Primitivo has a ruby red color with purplish highlights. The organoleptic characteristics of this wine are a well-defined red fruit scent with a stronger or lighter note of spices depending on its aging. On the taste, however, it is soft and almost sweet, all prerogatives making it very recognizable among many reds.
Matchings: rich dishes of our region for its ability to soften strong flavors.
Our region is rich in cured meats and cheese perfectly matching this wine, which is ideal for a nice autumn aperitif, an evening with friends or a dinner with the one closest to you. Try the pairing with roasted chestnuts!Serving temperature: 18-20 degrees
