WINE DESCRIPTION

Colle Corviano Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is is sourced from vineyards located near the village of Loreto Aprutino, in the Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC area, 300 meters above sea level. Following a careful selection of the grapes in mid-October, the grape stalks are removed and traditional temperature controlled fermentation on the skins in stainless steel is applied for 10 days with periodic pumping over. The wine is aged for six months in 34hl French oak barrels. The cycle ends with three months bottle rest to produce a wine rich in fruit and lively acidity elegantly framed by oak spices.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Colle Corviano Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a medium-bodied red wine with aromas of ripe plums, cherries, and licorice.On the palate, it is smooth and velvety, with notes of blackberries, spice, and subtle oak tannins. The finish is well-balanced with a focus on ripe black fruit aromas reminiscent of plums accompanied by delicate sweet spices.
