The Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Doc "Caldaria" by Agriverde is a red wine of great structure and personality that reflects the authenticity of the Abruzzo terroir. This wine is cultivated on the clay and limestone soils of the Agriverde estate, set in the stunning landscape of the Abruzzo region, where organic viticulture techniques are applied to fully respect nature and the environment.

Caldaria presents itself with an intense and brilliant ruby red color. On the nose, it offers a complex and enveloping bouquet, characterized by notes of ripe red fruits such as sour cherries and plums, accompanied by nuances of sweet spices and a light hint of licorice. On the palate, the wine is robust and well-structured, with soft and balanced tannins that lead to a persistent and harmonious finish.

This Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is traditionally vinified with controlled fermentation, followed by aging in both steel and oak barrels, to best enhance the varietal characteristics and ensure a perfect balance between fruit and wood.

Ideal as a pairing with hearty Italian dishes, such as pasta with ragù, roasted red meats, and aged cheeses, Caldaria is a wine that can be enjoyed immediately but also has excellent aging potential. At the table, it is capable of transforming every meal into a moment of pure joy, enhancing every flavor with its vigorous and richly nuanced presence.
