"Cagiolo" Montepluciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOP

“Cagiolo” Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOP 2019 – a red wine from the hills of Abruzzo that showcases the potential of this often underestimated region. Produced by Cantina Tollo , one of Central Italy's most prestigious cooperatives, this Riserva is a wine for those seeking depth, maturity, and character – without breaking the bank.

In the glass, it displays a deep ruby ​​red with dark garnet hues , as befits a mature Riserva vintage. The nose unfolds aromas of black cherry, blackberry, and plum , underpinned by a warm hint of tobacco, leather, and clove. On the palate, you'll find a full-bodied, well-structured wine with velvety tannins and a long finish – the result of careful aging in oak barrels and subsequent bottle maturation.

The “Cagiolo” is an ideal companion to:

• braised beef or lamb ragù
• spicy hard cheese such as Pecorino stagionato
• a good cheese platter in the evening

Those who act now will secure a mature vintage at an attractive closeout price – while supplies last.
