Tiberio Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOP is a vibrant expression of the Montepulciano grape, grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Cugnoli, Italy. This wine is a testament to the dedication of the Tiberio winery, which focuses on crafting authentic and expressive wines that showcase the unique terroir of Abruzzo.
The grapes for this wine are sourced from a combination of old-vine pergola-trained vineyards and younger Guyot-trained vines, planted in clay-calcareous soils. This blend of old and new vines contributes to the wine's complexity and depth. The winemaking process is a careful balance of tradition and modern techniques, with fermentation occurring spontaneously in stainless steel tanks and the wine bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Tiberio Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOP displays a brilliant ruby red color with violet hues. The nose is a captivating mix of ripe red cherries, blueberries, and violets, with a subtle hint of flint. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and elegant, with smooth tannins and a long, refreshing finish. This wine is a perfect pairing for hearty pasta dishes, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.
