Abruzzo ~ Montepulciano
Montepulciano is a native vine of central Italy and in particular of the Marche and Abruzzo; as evidence of this there are several documents dating back to the 1700s.
Montepulciano best represents the "red" tradition of central Italy. Montepulciano grapes are capable of expressions of world-class power, elegance and breadth of olfactory nuances.
