Lumeggio
di Rosso
Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC
“Deep, full-bodied, harmonious,
as velvety as velvet”
The wine glows with an intense ruby red colour, interspersed with violet hues that shimmer in the light. The aroma of ripe red fruit is enveloping and persistent: it invites you to linger. On the palate, it reveals a velvety fullness: deep, round and harmonious, with a liquorice finish that lingers on the tongue. Lumeggio di Rosso is our Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC, which is aged for six months in Slavonian oak barrels before maturing in the bottle until it reaches its full balance. A wine that asserts itself with grace, bringing to the table the substance of the clay-rich soil and the bold character of Colline Teramane. Every sip tells a story of patience and respect for the rhythms of nature.
