One of Abruzzo's very best artisan producers, the wines of Praesidium are among the most soulful, complex and satisfying in the region. They are made by the Pasquale family, who farm seven hectares of land organically in the secluded Peligna Valley. Their cellars are hand-cut into the rock, and the winemaking is appropriately traditional - wild yeast fermentations, extended ageing and no fining or filtration coupled with top quality fruit. When they are eventually released, the Praesidium wines all have depth, power and a mineral streak that mark them out as very special. They are treasures no lover of traditional Italian wine should miss.
The Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva is raised for four years in tank and then in mid-sized barrels. It is a powerful, deeply flavoured wine with a rich, earthy quality complementing the dark sour cherry fruit. A very fine Montepulciano with quality and character.
