Taste

The palate, energetic and fat, returned to duty by acidity, balances to perfection alcoholic strength and tannic character, veering in closing to Boer, goudron and bitter officinale. Already enjoyable now, it will reward those who will be able to wait for its evolution.

"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.
