Tasting notes

The Masciarelli winery undoubtedly deserves a place of choice in the production landscape of Abruzzo, but also Italian. Gianni Masciarelli was a producer with a marked entrepreneurial ability and in the design of his wines, with a distinctly modern cut, he never left any details to chance. It is a warm and creamy wine; scented with ripe red fruits such as red plum and red cherry, enhanced by notes of cocoa and vanilla given permanently in wooden barrels. The aromatic bouquet is of a beautiful intensity. The fruitiness is wonderfully highlighted.

One of the most popular wines from Masciarelli is the Marina Cvetic Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC Reserva. This full-bodied wine is made from 100% Montepulciano grapes, which are carefully selected and hand-harvested to ensure only the best fruit is used.
