Within the renowned Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo denomination, it stands out visually for its brilliant cherry-pink colour. On the nose, it offers an elegant and defined bouquet, where delicate hints of violet blend harmoniously with crisp notes of cherry and pomegranate. The palate reveals a light and balanced structure, supported by a \u003cstrong\u003elively acidity\u003c\/strong\u003e that ensures great smoothness. The finish is clean, pleasantly savoury and accompanied by consistent fruity returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates from the \u003cstrong\u003ehills of Spoltore\u003c\/strong\u003e, in the province of Pescara, where the La Valentina winery cultivates its vineyards using sustainable farming practices. The vines, trained with the traditional Abruzzo pergola system, grow on \u003cstrong\u003emedium-textured clay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, enjoying optimal exposure to the south and south-west. The rows, positioned at an altitude between one hundred and fifty and three hundred metres above sea level, benefit from a microclimate that favours ideal ripening of the grapes. This specific terroir imparts a \u003cstrong\u003edelicate minerality\u003c\/strong\u003e to the wine, enhancing its gustatory tension and deep territorial character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest takes place between mid-September and mid-October, carefully selecting the Montepulciano bunches to ensure clear aromatic precision. In the winery, there is a \u003cstrong\u003eskin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e lasting about eighteen hours, followed by \u003cstrong\u003esaignée of the must\u003c\/strong\u003e and a slow fermentation at controlled temperature. The subsequent \u003cstrong\u003eageing in steel\u003c\/strong\u003e fully preserves the elegance and freshness of the fruit, completed by natural stabilisation. Bottling seals a linear and taut rosé, characterised by a clean finish with not overly long persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1990 on the hills of Spoltore, the La Valentina winery produces an \u003cstrong\u003eorganic Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e from 100% Montepulciano grapes grown using the Abruzzo pergola system. Under the guidance of oenologist Luca D’Attoma, the grapes undergo an \u003cstrong\u003e18-hour skin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e and a slow fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature. This meticulous process, combined with ageing and \u003cstrong\u003enatural stabilisation\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserves the elegant freshness of a rosé that faithfully embodies the authentic soul of the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"La Valentina","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46261793423531,"sku":"60603","price":11.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/la-valentina-cerasuolo-d-abruzzo-2025_60603_1_baf15b05-595c-49a5-9fa5-0a7bf5752f76.webp?v=1773812010","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-be\/products\/la-valentina-cerasuolo-dabruzzo-2025","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
