Fontefico Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Cocca di Casa 2020

Description

The "cocca di casa" Montepulciano d'Abruzzo doc is a smooth red with pleasant tannins. Lightly balsamic with berries and cherries scent. Licorice and a light spice in aftertaste make it very drinkable! The Montepulciano is the main grape variety of our Region, the bunches we love the most, the wine that, in all honesty, we drink with the greater pleasure and in all circumstances. Montepulciano is our privileged grape, the one we cuddle the most. This wine is our “cocca di casa”, our “princess of the house”.
