Cantina Indigeno makes this Cerasuolo from 100% organically farmed Montepulciano grown on stony limestone-clay soils near Montorio al Vomano in the Teramo province of Abruzzo. The grapes spend one night in contact with the skins in open vats, which extracts Montepulciano's signature deep cherry-red color along with light tannin and fruit concentration. Fermentation proceeds spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, without temperature control or any additives.
After pressing, the wine refines on its lees in fiberglass containers for approximately eight months before bottling. It is unfined, unfiltered, and contains no added sulfites. Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC, established as its own appellation in 2010, covers the traditional rosato style made from Montepulciano in all four provinces of Abruzzo.
The result sits between a rosé and a light red: more structured and deeply colored than Provence-style wines, with the bright acidity and red-fruit character that Montepulciano delivers when vinified with brief skin contact. The Teramo hills, buffered by Adriatic breezes from the east and cool Apennine air from the west, produce grapes with natural freshness and mineral edge.
