Montepulciano

Abruzzo, the land of origin of this superb Italian vine variety, is the ideal terroir for producing very high-quality fruits and superior wines.

Our Montepulciano offers aromas of blackberry and sour cherry, followed by intriguing hints of violet, hazelnut, black pepper and liquorice.

Well-structured, soft and persistent, it is perfect not only with traditional lamb or braised beef dishes, but also with Oriental cuisine and especially sweet and sour dishes.

The Warrior of Capestrano

The Warrior of Capestrano is a 6th-century BC funerary sculpture depicting an ancient Italic warrior and is one of the most powerful symbols of Abruzzo’s tradition and pride.

Discovered by chance in 1934 during agricultural work in Capestrano, it was immediately recognized as a rare archaeological treasure. The statue, about two meters tall, features an imposing armor and a characteristic headdress, elements that reflect the artistic skill and warrior identity of the ancient Vestini people.

Today, the artifact is housed in the National Museum of Abruzzo in Chieti, where it attracts scholars and visitors alike.

“Abruzzo boasts a grape variety that is extraordinarily balanced with hints of violet, red berries, spices and tobacco, resulting in exceptionally pleasurable wines of great structure.”
