Territory and vineyards

I Luoghi

The saplings (alberelli) in Tocco da Casauria near the Majella mountain range and the espaliers in Silvi, overlooking the sea. Always in the footsteps of Montepulciano which originated in the foothills and has since made it to Abruzzo and elsewhere around the world.
