From vines in Morro d’Oro in Teramo at 210m above sea level, the must spends eight to 12 hours in contact with the grape skins before pressing. It's a leesy, musty wine on the nose, but in the mouth simple cherry fruit emerges along with some bright strawberry and raspberry. There's a touch of leesiness, some subtle tannins and a sprinkle of pepper too. Well balanced, with good intensity and fresh acidity.
