Wine Summary Image

he grapes for this Cru Montepulciano d 'Abruzzo grow in very old vineyards on equally old vines, which have been able to dig their roots in the calcareous, fine clay soil for an average of 30-35 years. The very warm environment and low rainfall as well as strong fluctuations between day and night temperatures ensure that the grapes can ripen well, but do not lose their acidity

.

After the highly selective hand-picking, a part is harvested overripe for the Amaranta, the grapes are broken up in the Tenuta Ulisse winery, mashed and the must is fermented in a temperature-controlled manner. Afterwards, the Amaranta matures for 9 to 12 months in high-quality French and American oak barriques.

The indigenous Montepulciano d 'Abruzzo grape variety has experienced a real renaissance in recent years. You don't know much about the origins of this dark grape until today. For a long time it was attributed to the Sangiovese clone group. What is certain today, however, is that this is a completely autonomous indigenous grape variety. It is grown mainly in the Abruzzo region and in the other regions of central and southern Italy. Thanks to some manufacturers and oenologists and their diligent work, the Montepulciano grape experiences a renaissance as one of the red grape varieties of the highest quality and quality.

Expert Reviews

99 LUCA MARONI, ANNUAL ITALIAN WINE GUIDE 2020

''Few other red wines in the world show off this style in which the sweetness of the fruit, with those of the balsamic spices so sweetly, vanilla-mentally minty, are so penetrated and balanced. At the base of this shining persuasion, a raw material of supreme concentration, an oenological transformation that nothing has dispersed of its original natural splendour. Integrity that is cleanliness and stainless splendour of its fruit of the forest, of concentration and palatal balance that is truly exceptional. Chapeau.'' 99 Points, Best Italian Wine, Luca Maroni, Annual Italian Wine Guide 2020

Winery Tasting Notes

This powerful Italian red wine flows into the glass in a very full and elegant ruby red.

On the nose it shows very complex and generous fragrances with the wonderful hints of plums and cherry jam.

These fruit aromas are accompanied by nuances of tobacco and a spicy aftertaste.

On the palate, this impressive Montepulciano d 'Abruzzo is beautifully balanced and complex with pleasant, pefect tannins well integrated into the structure.

Rich and powerful, this red wine is a true pleasure with excellent balanced alcoholic potential.

With a long, warm and opulent finish, the Amaranta convinces across the board.
