The wine

The Masciarelli family can take the credit for having instigated the resurgence of wines from the Abruzzo region. Gianni, its founder, has turned the Montepulciano variety into one of the most highly-esteemed grapes in the world. You only need to try his Montepulciano d'Abruzzo to prove it, a wine with an exceptional price-quality ratio, truly superb despite the simplicity of its production, a young wine that rounds off in tank for almost two years before being released.

Accessible and easy to drink, it’s a complete wine and very flavoursome too. An aromatic red with a huge amount of fruit, medium-bodied and having pleasant tannins. A red from the south of Italy which we recommend buying by the case, ready to cork at any time right through the year!

Wine critics reviewsReviews by Suckling

Clean, mixed brambleberry character with light herb and mineral touches. Medium-bodied with bright fruit, well-integrated and lightly firm tannins and a balanced finish. Always super value for money. Drink now.

The winery

Masciarelli

The Masciarelli winery was one of the protagonists of the rebirth of Abruzzo wine and is certainly one of the largest and highest quality in the area today. It certainly ranks among the great ambassadors of Italian wine in the world. A winery of undisputed quality, which expresses itself at high levels of excellence right from the entry level wines, including the Montepulciano d'Abruzzo of the classic line, which not by chance is always among the bestsellers of Italian...
