Description
Fattoria La Valentina Bellovedere Riserva 2020 is the estate's flagship Montepulciano, crafted from the oldest vines on the Bellovedere hill in Spoltore. Founded in 1990, the winery is known for its commitment to expressing Abruzzo's terroir through sustainable, low-intervention practices. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with indigenous yeasts, then matured for 18 months in a combination of large Slavonian oak and French barriques. This Riserva reveals deep layers of black cherry, tobacco, cocoa and balsamic notes, framed by firm tannins and vibrant acidity. A structured, age-worthy wine with exceptional depth and regional typicity.
