Pairing Fish soup; pasta with tomato sauce; pizza
The Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC Villa Gemma from Masciarelli shows a bright color with cherry hues and lively reflections. On the nose it is frank and immediate, with clear hints of fresh red fruit, floral touches and a subtle spice that defines its character without overwhelming it. On the palate it offers pleasant acidity, medium body and a savory line with fine persistence; the sip is balanced and smooth, with fruit echoes and a clean, crisp finish.

It pairs with Mediterranean dishes: cured meats and fresh cheeses, pasta with light sauces, white meats and more flavorful fish preparations; it also suits informal aperitif drinking. Serve at around 12–14 °C in fairly open but not overly large glasses to let the aromas develop. This is a wine to enjoy young to capture its primary liveliness, though its balance makes it suitable for various convivial occasions.
The winery

Masciarelli Tenute Agricole – Winery in Abruzzo

Discover the story and wines of Masciarelli Tenute Agricole.

Winery from Abruzzo founded by Gianni Masciarelli in the late 1970s; best known for its Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC (Linea Classica), the estate’s everyday wine (100% Montepulciano, first vintage 1981), distributed in over 50 countries.
Region: Abruzzo
Country: Italy
Winery history
Founded in the late 1970s in San Martino sulla Marrucina (CH). The first bottlings under the Masciarelli name date to 1981. The estate grew from a few hectares to over 60 vineyard parcels across all four Abruzzo provinces and earned multiple national and international awards. Since 2008 it has been led by Marina Cvetic Masciarelli.
Production philosophy
Focus on native varieties (especially Montepulciano and Trebbiano), uncompromising quality and environmental responsibility: environmental management system, ISO 14001 and EMAS certifications, and investments in wine tourism (Castello di Semivicoli).
Terroir and vineyards
Estate-owned vineyards across all four Abruzzo provinces (Chieti, Teramo, Pescara, L’Aquila). For the Linea Classica Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC the grapes come from S. Martino sulla Marrucina (400 m), Bucchianico (250 m), Loreto Aprutino (350 m), Ripa Teatina (250 m), Colonnella (200 m) and Corropoli (200 m). Varied soils and elevations provide expressive diversity.
