Description
Cantina Zaccagnini Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
From Montepulciano d’Abruzzo grapes.
Fermentation with the skins by temperature control in stainless steel tanks. Ageing in oak barrels for 6 months.
Another 3 months refining in bottle. This superb wine comes packaged in a unique bottle with a small piece of vine attached to the bottle with string.
The wine is wonderfully rounded with an intense ruby red colour, full soft black cherry flavours and damson fruit aromas, full bodied, well balanced with tannin and oak features.
