Divus Montepulciano D'Abruzzo DOC

Divus is our first wine and our first label. My mother created this wine and it tells of the place from which it comes with pride. The medal bearing the face of Diocletian stands out on the label.

Compared to other wines of that era, Montepulciano d’Abruzzo was prized highly by this emperor. The grapes come from the oldest vineyards of the winery where the tendone method is used. The grapes are destemmed and the pressing starts off the rack-and-return process in stainless steel vats. This is followed by pumpower and fermentation. The wine then ages in stainless steel vats, the aging process continues once the wine is transferred to 20 hl barrels from 2009 and barriques from 2007 for about one more year.

Intense ruby red colour. Elegants hints of red fruit jam, liquorice and black pepper. Tannin and acidity. Goes well with grilled lamb and roast beef.
