Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOP Cagiòlo 2019 Cantina Tollo

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Cagiòlo is produced by Cantina Tollo, an Abruzzo company founded in 1960 in Tollo, in the province of Chieti.

It is produced exclusively with Montepulciano grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand in the second half of October. Fermentation takes place, with long maceration, in steel at a controlled temperature of 30 ° C. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages for at least 12 months in barriques and for a further 12 months in the bottle, before being marketed.

Cantina Tollo's Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Cagiòlo has an intense ruby red color with violet reflections. The nose opens with aromas of ripe red fruit, black cherry and blackberry, accompanied by delicate spicy hints of cocoa, vanilla, licorice and cinnamon. On the palate it is full and persistent, with sweet and velvety tannins.

Perfect to accompany dishes based on porcini mushrooms and truffles, this red wine is ideal in combination with red meats, game and aged cheeses.
