Colline Teramane Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Abruzzo's only DOCG; Montepulciano d'Abruzzo from the Teramo hills — more structured, tannic and age-worthy than regular Abruzzo DOC wines from coastal gravels and clay-limestone hillsides.

Year Rating Notes

2020 Outstanding vintage for Abruzzo; depth and concentration both exceptional.
2019 Warm and generous; Montepulciano dark cherry and violet at their best.
