Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane Riserva DOCG Opi 2016 Fantini Farnese

The Colline Teramane Riserva Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Opi by Fantini Farnese was born on the organically-run Cantalupo estate, located in the municipality of Notaresco, in the province of Teramo.

It is produced entirely with Montepulciano grapes, carefully picked and selected by hand. Fermentation takes place, with maceration in contact with the skins, in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 25 days. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages for 24 months in French and American oak barrels, before being bottled.

It has a garnet red color. The nose opens with intense and ethereal spicy aromas, among which tobacco and licorice stand out, enriched with notes of ripe red fruit and in alcohol. On the palate it is soft and balanced, with great body and persistence.

Perfect to accompany rich first courses and red meats, it is ideal in combination with medium and long-aged cheeses
