Turan Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOCG Riserva

It is a very good wine to drink at 16-18 °c but also a little more and only after waiting a few minutes after opening, and possibly with a large wine glass.

It is the perfect wine: you can enjoy it whether during moments of meditation or with some friends. Appropriate with structured and tasty dishes but also with aperitifs or starters, red meat, vegetarian dishes, and short and long seasoning cheese.

Let’s imagine a carpaccio with grated parmesan flakes, maltagliati pasta with ragú meta sauce, fillet in the crust, or pepper grilled seasonal vegetables or with semi-seasoned or seasoned cheese.

Characteristics of vine

The vine 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.
