Background

This wine is made from 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo grapes and is vinified with maceration on the skins and stainless steel fermentation for 20 days. Malolactic fermentation takes place completely in stainless steel tanks with refinement in bottle for 4-6 months before release. Villa Medoro is owned by the Della Loggia-Morricone Family. In 1966, Federica Morricone's grandfather, Mr. Luigi Della Loggia, bought property in Medoro, a small village located near Atri in Abruzzo. The estate now encompasses over 250 hectares, 107 of which are currently planted with vines. Set in the beautiful area of Teramo hills and overlooking the green Adriatic Sea, this area is particularly suited to prime viticulture.

Tasting Notes

A lively and bright ruby red color with black cherry, red fruit and spices on the nose. Pleasingly smooth and drinkable with notes of red fruit.
