Ora Piena Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Appassimento
Cantina Tollo
This is a classic red wine from the hills of Abruzzo, made from 100% Montepulciano grapes, showcasing the rich terroir of the region and the winemaking prowess of Cantina Tollo. The wine undergoes cold maceration, controlled fermentation, and matures in oak barrels for at least 24 months, further enhancing its body structure and aging potential. Orapiena exhibits a depth and elegance that sets it apart from typical Montepulciano offerings. Orapiena not only pairs well with red meats and aged cheeses but is also easily approachable due to its soft and slightly sweet palate, making it a favorite among both novice drinkers and connoisseurs. This is Cantina Tollo's modern interpretation of traditional Montepulciano Riserva, a representative work combining strength, femininity, and exquisite craftsmanship. Alcohol content is 13% vol
