Abruzzo Producer Guide

In Abruzzo we find the home of the Montepulciano variety, responsible for this region’s most exciting red wines and the base of almost every red wine DOC here. The best examples are packed full of dense black fruits, powerful, full-bodied and tannic that can age beautifully, though certainly by no means does every example hit those heights. This grape is also responsible for Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo, one of Italy’s finest and most respected rosés.

Iconic Producers

Emidio Pepe

Organic, biodynamic and/or regenerative: Denotes producers conducting organic, biodynamic and/or regenerative practices, whether certified or not.

Low intervention: Denotes producers part of the "natural" wine movement, using no additives in winemaking, including no (or very low doses of) added sulfites.

Valentini

Unicorn: Extraordinarily rare, highly coveted wines, often legendary in their quality or mystique. Typically produced in minuscule quantities, from iconic or lesser-known but exceptional producers, and challenging to acquire due to their scarcity, price, or cult status.

Notable Producers

Abbazia di Popezzano

Amorotti

Rising Star: Denote those producers that we believe have the potential to become the Icons of tomorrow. Expect exciting quality wines which have yet to achieve widespread acclaim. Buy them now while they’re still affordable.
