Descrizione

The Plateo Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOC MAGNUM from the Agriverde winery is a refined and intensely characteristic example of this prestigious designation from Abruzzo. Made from carefully selected Montepulciano grapes, this wine stands as a true symbol of Italian winemaking excellence.

Its color is a deep ruby red with garnet reflections, indicating its maturation and complexity. On the nose, the Plateo offers an enveloping bouquet of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, enhanced by notes of sweet spices, leather, and a delicate touch of vanilla, a result of skilled barrel aging.

On the palate, the Plateo Riserva is distinguished by its solid and well-balanced structure. The tannins are robust but smooth, perfectly integrated with the acidity that brings freshness to the taste. The finish is long and persistent, with a return of the spicy and fruity notes that invite another sip.

This wine pairs wonderfully with hearty red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. Also perfect as a meditation wine, the Plateo Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva is ideal for special occasions or as a significant gift, further emphasized by its MAGNUM format, which accentuates its grandeur and elegance.

It is recommended to decant for at least an hour before serving and to enjoy it at a temperature of 18-20°C to fully appreciate its range of aromas and flavors. With its aging potential, this wine can be kept in the cellar for several years, evolving and improving over time.

Winery history

The Di Carlo family has historical roots in local viticulture; near the historic village of Caldari the business now known as Cantine Agriverde grew. In the 1980s the company converted its production to organic methods, obtaining ICEA certification and establishing itself among the first organic producers in the Abruzzo region.

Production philosophy

Agriverde adopts a "naturally organic" approach, based on certified organic production, respect for the land and consumer health. The company champions sustainable farming practices and limits chemical treatments, also focusing on the recovery of natural yeasts and on processes that enhance the connection between soil, climate and grape variety.
