Description

At the "heart" of Masciarelli history. From the private and professional bond between John and Marina was born in 1991 the product line that bears his name. With no less than 6 references, the Marina Cvetic line is characterized by the presence of international grape varieties in purity (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay) by side in Montepulciano and Trebbiano. The reading that it offers is original and character: structured and elegant wines Marina Cvetic are a "lone voice" for the most demanding and technically savvy.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1981
  • Oenologist: Attilio Alfino
  • Bottles produced: 2.300.000
  • Hectares: 300
Masciarelli Tenute Agricole was established in 1981 from the entrepreneurial intuition of Gianni Masciarelli, a symbol of Italian wine and protagonist of the success of modern wine production in Abruzzo. The beating heart of the winery is in San Martino sulla Marrucina, in the province of Chieti, and includes vineyards and olive groves, in all 4 provinces of Abruzzo.

Wine production – while also having a small production of extra virgin olive oil – now has 22 labels and seven product lines: Classic Line, Gianni Masciarelli, Villa Gemma, Marina Cvetic and Castello di Semivicoli. Villa Gemma, Iskra, Marina Cvetic, Castello di Semivicoli, Gianni Masciarelli, Linea Classica e La Botte di Gianni.

In the constant and renewed work for innovation, but with respect for the environment and tradition, Masciarelli inaugurated, after a long restoration, Castello di Semivicoli, a seventeenth-century baronial mansion, which is now a Relais de Charme in the vineyards, a driving force of wine tourism in the area.
