Made through skin maceration and fermentation in steel, its bright pink colour anticipates intense aromas of dog rose, fresh cherry, pomegranate and wild strawberries. On the palate, it is full-bodied, enriched by a pleasant \u003cstrong\u003esaline tension\u003c\/strong\u003e and a delicate tannic texture, finishing with a hint of aniseed and almond, making it ideal to accompany cured meat starters, soups, carpaccio and sliced meats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from vineyards located in the municipality of Spoltore, within the renowned area of the Colline Pescaresi in Abruzzo. This hilly area benefits from optimal south and south-west exposure, ensuring ideal ripening of the bunches. The vines, which are over thirty years old, are trained using the \u003cstrong\u003eAbruzzo pergola\u003c\/strong\u003e system and sink their roots into \u003cstrong\u003emedium-textured clay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, at an altitude between 150 and 300 metres. These specific pedoclimatic characteristics give the wine its typical structure and pronounced savouriness, faithfully expressing the authentic \u003cstrong\u003eessence of the territory\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe creation of this Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo begins with the harvest in October, followed by targeted \u003cstrong\u003eskin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e for about eighteen hours. This phase, accompanied by the technique of bleeding the must, allows the extraction of the desired colour and aromatic compounds. The subsequent fermentation takes place slowly in steel vats at a controlled temperature, preserving the freshness of the aromas. Ageing continues for four months, mainly in steel and for the remaining part in \u003cstrong\u003esmall barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. To guarantee the integrity of the product, the wine is bottled without fining or \u003cstrong\u003eforced stabilisation\u003c\/strong\u003e, offering a sip that is extremely true to its nature.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Spoltore, among the hills of Pescara, the \u003cstrong\u003eCerasuolo d’Abruzzo Superiore DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e from La Valentina expresses the authentic soul of the region.
