Amarandia Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Red wine | Montepulciano D'Abruzzo DOP

Ode to Montepulciano
This red wine showcases THE grape variety of Abruzzo, Montepulciano. Not to be confused with the town of the same name in Tuscany, on the other side of Italy, where it is practically non-existent! This vintage seduces with deep aromas of cherries, dried flowers and spices. The palate is velvety, rich, with a beautiful structure. An intense wine, to pair with comforting dishes!

Masseria del Sud

Created in 2010 by a group of wine lovers, this beautiful modern winery is located in Abruzzo, in the heart of the Byzantine town of Crecchio, dominated by a medieval castle. The vineyards, close to the Gran Sasso massif, spread out over the hills of the province of Chieti. They are grown with the greatest respect for the environment. By their exposure and their altitude, the vines here take full advantage of the proximity of the sea and the mountains, which allows the birth of robust wines reflecting all the typicity of their terroir.
