Pemo Montepulciano D'Abruzzo DOC 2021

This Montepulciano has a rich red colour, with cherry aromas on the nose. A deeply characterful wine, it is really soft and velvety, with red berry fruits, and a smooth, gentle finish.

Montepulciano has long been one of Italy’s most important and versatile grape varieties.

The grapes for PEMO Montepulciano are grown exclusively on hillside slopes, at an altitude of at least 250 metres above the sea level. The Grapes are hand-picked around the beginning of October

The Grapes are handpicked and carefully destemmed and once softly crushed, the wine is fermented for about 18-10 days at 24-25C. Frequent remontages are carried out for optimum colour extraction, and the pips are removed from the fermenters. After fermenation is completed, the wine is kept in contact with the skins for about 5-7 days. Once the wine is racked, malolactic fermentation occues naturally. Wine stays on fine lees sofr at least 150 days before being racked and filtered.
