The Wolf is one of the best known and most studied animals, a nocturnal animal and a protected species, it is the absolute protagonist of the Abruzzo fauna and of the large stone located behind Torre Raone.

Trebiano d'Abruzzo Senza Solfiti Aggiunti 2023

The Deer, a shy animal, tends to feed on shoots and its presence is clearly evident from the footprints it leaves in our vineyards when it goes in search of food. Solitary but also tender, this Trebbiano represents a real taste surprise.

Vinous: 92 Points for Torre Raone‘s Cerasuolo

Cerasuolo d’ Abruzzo DOC 2022

Points
0

Grapes: 100% Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. Vinification is “in white” after a short cryomaceration in the press (6 hours) of the free-run must.
Nose: intense, moderately persistent, fine and delicate, floral notes that blend with ample aromas of fresh fruit such as cherry, strawberry and mango.
Taste: dry, quite warm, quite fresh and with a good structure with hints of cherry, strawberry, yellow plum, mango and a marked acidity reminiscent of pomegranate; savory with long persistence, balanced and harmonious.

TASTING NOTES:
“The 2022 Cerasuolo d’ Abruzzo seduces with a blend of cherries and spice complemented by mint and lavender. This is deeply textural yet energetic throughout, with zesty acidity guiding its rose-tinged strawberry fruits and sour citrus nuances that add lovely contrast. It finishes with a mineral twang full of youthful tension, ending with a liquorice and tart cranberry concentration. Lovely.”
