Vigna Corvina Cerasuolo

Grapes: Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
A deep berry coloured rose with aromas of strawberries and cherry fruit, mixed with savoury herbal notes. These juicy flavours follow through on the palate - which has a good concentration of spicy berry fruit - leading to a crisp and dry finish.

Azienda Agricola Contesa
Rocco Pasetti's superbly sited 25 hectare estate lies in the heart of the Collecorvino district in the hills northwest of Pescara, recognised as one of the best vineyard zones in Abruzzo. His range of impeccably made, fruit-rich wines combines warm and generous flavours with stylish, eye-catching presentation. The Vigna Corvino pair are modern and easy to drink, yet wines of real substance. The Contesa range, produced in tiny quantities from selected parcels of the best grapes on the estate, are bold, impressive versions of Abruzzo's local grapes, Montepulciano and the up-and-coming white variety Pecorino.
