The 2021 vintage is a compelling expression of Southern and Central Italian character, combining the freshness and structural precision of Abruzzo's hillside vineyards with the depth, warmth, and richness of Puglia's ancient varietals. Awarded 99 Points by Luca Maroni.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery deep garnet in the glass. The bouquet is intense and persistent — dark cherry and blackcurrant at the core, layered with herbs, cinnamon, cloves, cocoa, and liquorice. The palate delivers great structure with velvety tannins, excellent freshness, and a long, seamless finish. A wine of genuine complexity built to reward both early and extended cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Five Varieties\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdizione Cinque Autoctoni — Edition of Five Indigenous Varieties — brings together the five grapes that best define Southern and Central Italy's winemaking identity. Montepulciano and Sangiovese contribute structure, freshness, and red fruit precision from the Abruzzi hills. Primitivo, Negroamaro, and Malvasia Nera add depth, dark fruit concentration, and the unmistakable warmth of Puglia's sun-drenched vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard \u0026amp; Origin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFruit is sourced from carefully selected vineyards across Abruzzo and Puglia — two of Italy's most geographically and viticulturally distinct wine regions. The Montepulciano and Sangiovese vineyards sit at elevation in the Abruzzi hills, where cooler temperatures preserve natural acidity and aromatic precision. The Primitivo, Negroamaro, and Malvasia Nera are grown in Southern Puglia, where the Mediterranean climate and ancient vine stock deliver characteristic depth and concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe five varieties are vinified separately to preserve each variety's individual character before final blending. Grapes are destemmed and pressed, followed by extended maceration and fermentation. Maturation takes place in oak — American and French — allowing the varieties to develop complexity and integration. Winemaker: Filippo Baccalaro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCellaring \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReady to enjoy now, with excellent potential to develop further through to 2030 and beyond.
