Description

At the “heart” of Masciarelli’s history. The private and professional bond between Gianni and Marina originated this product line bearing her name in 1991. Consisting of 6 references, Marina Cvetic line is characterized by the presence of international grapes in purity (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chardonnay) beside Montepulciano and Trebbiano. The interpretation of these wines is original and has a character. Marina Cvetic wines have full body and are elegant and are a “lone voice” for the most demanding and technical experts.

"I think everyone has asked themselves at least once, -Who makes me do it? I find the answer in the destiny of my family, in the love I bring to my land and in the satisfaction I receive from my work".
Gianni Masciarelli.

Undoubtedly, this is the winery that speaks the most about Abruzzo as the land of wine in Italy and around the world. Gianni Masciarelli, the founder, and Marina Cvetic, his life and professional partner, have always aimed for the best, investing in quality and innovation. A pioneer of modern winemaking in Abruzzo, Gianni Masciarelli initiated the profound renewal of winemaking practices that led to the gradual establishment of Abruzzo as a unique production area in Italy.
Thanks to his and Marina's determination, in just a few years Masciarelli has imposed a new and recognisable style in the production of native and International varieties and is now counted among the excellences of Italian wine. Read more
