Wine Description:
Torri Bakán Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva is a distinguished wine hailing from the prime viticultural terrain of Abruzzo. Crafted by Torry in Controguerra, in the province of Teramo, it emerges from an ancient vineyard cultivated using the Tendon system, benefiting from an optimal altitude that ensures a remarkable thermal range and excellent sun exposure. This wine showcases the essence of Montepulciano grapes, cultivated in a region renowned for its winemaking heritage. Following vinification in temperature-controlled steel vats and malolactic fermentation, it matures for six months in cement vats before spending a year in barriques. The result is a wine of exceptional depth and character, meticulously bottled to preserve its integrity, then aged further for six months. Torri Bakán Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva captivates with its rich, complex flavors and elegant structure, epitomizing the essence of its prestigious appellation.
