Vintage Character The Montetino 'Trameloscuro' Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo 2024 showcases the vibrant energy of this classic Italian appellation. A warm and dry 2024 growing season across Abruzzo yielded grapes with rich phenolic ripeness, while early harvesting preserved the crucial acidity required for this traditional cherry-hued style. The estate's vineyards benefit from clay-limestone soils positioned between the Apennine peaks and the Adriatic Sea, a unique setting where cool mountain breezes and coastal influences create dramatic diurnal temperature shifts that concentrate the fruit's natural aromatics.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the nose, this expressive Cerasuolo reveals intense aromas of fresh red cherries, wild strawberries, pomegranate, and a touch of dried Mediterranean herbs. The palate is dry and medium-bodied with a remarkably textured mouthfeel, balanced by a crisp, mineral-driven acidity that leads to a savory, lingering finish. This structured wine pairs exceptionally well with grilled pork chops, seared duck breast, or chicken yakitori.
Winery Background Montetino is dedicated to crafting artisanal, low-intervention wines that serve as a transparent window to Abruzzo's native varietals. Guided by a philosophy of minimal cellar interference, the winemaking team practices hand-harvesting and spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in neutral vessels to protect the pure fruit profile of the Montepulciano grape, resulting in an authentic and highly characterful expression of the region.
