Big juicy black and blue pastillated fruit, violets, charred wood, leather, rocks. rustic tannins here are a feature not a bug.

To know Abruzzo is to love Abruzzo. Rustic. And refined. Red fruit exploding. Tannins sooooooo smooth. Acid wraps your mouth in velvet.

Delicious wine. Nice balance of red and dark fruit with earthy tones. Long finish with well balanced tannins and acid

Very smooth, medium-bodied, juicy red fruit. Great with a homemade shrimp pasta with a light red sauce.
