The Piane di Maggio Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC Magnum from the Agriverde winery is a refined example that eloquently expresses the unique terroir of Abruzzo. This wine is presented in a Magnum format, ideal for wine enthusiasts who appreciate the preservation and evolution of flavors over time.

Produced following organic farming methods, Agriverde pays great attention to the environment and sustainability. The Montepulciano grapes are hand-harvested in October, proceeding to temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve all the fruity and distinctive aromas of the grape variety.

On the nose, Piane di Maggio offers a rich and enveloping aroma, with clear notes of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, enriched by hints of sweet spices and a light touch of vanilla, testifying to the elegant passage in wooden barrels.

On the palate, it reveals itself to be full-bodied yet balanced, with a good tannic structure that promises a long life. The well-balanced acidity paves the way for a persistent and intensely pleasant finish, reminiscent of the complexity of the olfactory bouquet.

This wine is perfect as an accompaniment to robust dishes such as roasts, game, and aged cheeses. It's also ideal to be enjoyed on its own, as a moment of pure enological contemplation.

The Magnum format is particularly suited for special celebrations or as a significant gift for wine connoisseurs, ensuring a memorable impression and a deeply enriching tasting experience.
