Iskra - Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOCG Riserva

Coming from a single vineyard in Controguerra, in the province of Teramo, this wine tells with its velvety softness and its intense aromas of ripe red fruit, one of the most particular terroirs of Abruzzo. Refine first in French oak barrels and then for a long time in the bottle.

Dense and full-bodied, it has vivid notes of blackberries, plums, blueberries and berries. Perfect match for roasts, stews or rich and spicy foods.
