Abruzzo | Rosato | Rosé

Abruzzo is famous for its Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, a rosé made from the Montepulciano grape. This rosé is stronger than most other rosés in Italy, with intense aromas of cherries, red berries and a hint of spice.

Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, a characterful rosato made from the Montepulciano grape, stands out clearly from many other rosé wines thanks to its unusually deep color and strong structure. The intense color often reaches cherry red, which is due to the short but effective maceration time. The aromas are reminiscent of juicy cherries, red currants, blackberries and subtle spicy notes such as cinnamon or pepper. This aromatic diversity makes it a wine with a distinctive profile and distinct recognition value.

Thanks to its full-bodied character, Cerasuolo is a particularly good accompaniment to hearty Italian cuisine - from lamb chops to grilled vegetables and mature cheeses. It also comes into its own with rustic pasta dishes or pizza with hearty toppings. It is a rosato that shows that rosé wines can have substance and depth without losing any of their freshness. Its combination of fruit, structure and elegance makes it a true ambassador of the Abruzzo wine tradition. - Gerardo [TS05/25]
