Tasting notes

Beautiful vintage, more than 12 years of love for this great Abbruzo wine. A fully mature wine, flavourful, complex and structured, with depth well above the mean. Savoury, ripe, dusty red berry-cherry aromatics and wild herbal notes. A must-have for a cozy night at home. As soon as the wine decants, Amorino offers an incredible complexity, finesse, elegance and italian charm.

Vinification and aging

Fermented and macerated in 150 hl concrete tanks for over 30 days at 30°C to gain the whole potential from the grapes. The extension of the maceration allows the extraction of the good tannins from the seeds which is particular important to improve the wine aging potential. Malolactic fermentation ended quickly during maceration guaranties a very clean aromatic profile and a better balance of the wine. Aging 12 months in 500 liters oak barrels, on lies.

Terroir
