Description
Amaranta Montepulciano D’Abruzzo is a cru wine obtained from Abruzzo’ s most important red grape, the Montepulciano. This wine represents our commitment to making the utmost of the spectacular terroirs and microclimates that Abruzzo region offers.
The origin of this grape has always been uncertain. Also students as Molon
(1906) classified it as a “Sangioveti” variety. Today it is sure that the two
grapes have nothing in common. Cultivated mainly in Abruzzo and the other
regions of centre south Italy. Today, thanks to the passion of some producers
and winemakers, the Montepulciano has emerged to the international limelight
as one of the best quality red grapes in world.
Ruby red with garnet reflections, intense and persistent fragrance; the bouquet
is intense, fruity, persistent, with notes of dried flowers, spice, liquorice,
marasca cherries. the palate is stylish, velvety, almost creamy, compact with
tannic structure that blends nicely with the alcoholic component. Great
structure, complex, elegant, well balanced with a long aftertaste. Opulent fruit.
Ideal for roasts, game, strongly flavoured dishes and mature cheese. Meditation
wine.
