!["Spelt" Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOC 2013]()
“Spelt” Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva DOC 2013
Deep dark Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva with a beguiling scent of dark red cherries and berries, earthy notes, tar, spices and liquorice. "A mouthful of wine" in an incredibly appealing style. Spelt has a remarkable concentration and excellent length. SUPERIORE.DE
"Inky-purple. Very deep smoky nose hints at blackberry, blueberry, flint and violet. Then refined and juicy, with smooth deep flavors of mineral-accented blueberry and aromatic herbs. Long, multilayered and extremely elegant finish boasts real depth and complexity. This is a knockout, really grand, Montepulciano wine. Very, very well done." Ian d’Agata (vinous.com)
"The 2013 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva Spelt is a dark and brooding wine that shows the power and the muscle of the dramatic Abruzzo landscape. This is a wine of firm consistency and sharp contours, much like the rocky peaks of this mountainous corner of Central Italy. Dark fruit and plum are followed by spice, leather and tobacco. This is a rough and tough red wine for cold winter nights." Robert Parker
"Ripe and rich with lots of fresh mushroom and dark fruits. Some lemon peel as well. A little tight and austere now but should open up nicely with a year or two age. Full body. Chewy finish." James Suckling

About the winemakers
La ValentinaAbruzzo
Founded in the early 1990s in the municipality of Spoltore on the sunny hills near the town of Pescara, the pretty Fattoria La Valentina has long been one of the leading and most reliable wine producers in Abruzzo. The three brothers Sabatino, Roberto and Andrea di Properzio, who are committed and have a strong sense of togetherness, have opted for organic grape cultivation and ecologically sustainable processing methods. In the vineyard as little as possible is interfered with natural processes. The estate manager Sabatino di Properzio has even had the complete renunciation of pesticides certified. The drops pressed in the Abruzzi winery are today known far beyond the borders of the country and most of them are exported all over the world.
The grapes of the central Italian winery thrive in two areas of high potential, which differ in their terroirs. The head office with the Bellovedere vineyard, which has grown over the years to more than 20 hectares, is located just a few kilometres from the Adriatic coast. The climate of the area, due to its proximity to the sea and the mountains, reveals the specific characteristics of the fruit. There is also a dependency about 20 kilometres from the historic winery, on a steep slope of the Majella in the municipality of San Valentino in Abruzzo Citeriore, which slopes down towards Pescara. In addition to the dominant Montepulciano and the Ciliegiolo, the range of grapes of the di Properzio family includes the white Pecorino, Trebbiano and the Fiano of the 'grand seigneur' among the Italian grape varieties. Both the land owned by the family and the leased land cultivated by La Valentina are cared for and cared for by the family clan with a lot of love and passion. The grapes are harvested by hand and are strictly selected during the harvest.
In the cellar, which was built in 2008 and is equipped with modern facilities, the following wines are produced under the strict supervision of the Technical Manager Luca d'Attoma strong character, fragrant and aromatic authentic wines with unmistakable charm. Even the excellent base wines, which are available on the market at very reasonable prices, can convince connoisseurs of good wines. The wines of the house are divided into three segments: Linea Terroir, Linea Classica and Binomio. In the Binomio vineyard in San Valentino, four hectares of Montepulciano grow on an area cultivated in a joint venture with partner Stefano Inama at an altitude of up to 400 metres. The Fattoria La Valentina's ten labels also include two Cerasuolo labels. SUPERIORE.DE
"La Valentina has accustomed us to wines that are strong in personality, original and sometimes modern, but that always maintain an interesting dialogue with tradition. A safe tip in the wine panorama of Abruzzo."Gambero Rosso
