To be served on 14-16 degrees and possibly with a nice wide goblet, we recommend always uncorking it a little bit before serving, so that it can open and express itself at its best.
Impeccable on any occasion, it can be enjoyed alone or with friends, better if paired with well-structured and tasty dishes: aperitifs, appetizers, vegetarian dishes, red meats, and medium and long-aged cheeses.
Think of pappardelle with goose ragout, aubergine pie, grilled meats, stuffed turkey, straccetti with gorgonzola.
The vine (Montepulciano d’Abruzzo) has found wide diffusion in Abruzzo and along the Adriatic coast. The variety is fairly homogeneous, the differential characters concern the shape of the bunch, the presence of green millerandage before maturation, the ripening time, and the organoleptic characteristics of the product.
It gives an intense ruby red colored wine, with a characteristic, vinous scent, dry, fruity, tannic, not acidic, of good body structure, velvety, rightly alcoholic.
