Binomio Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2022

Binomio Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2022 is a powerful, structured red that showcases the intensity of Montepulciano from a historic vineyard planted in 1971. Its ripe fruit, balanced tannins and careful oak ageing bring a polished expression to a wine rooted in Abruzzo’s winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes
The nose is marked by blackberry, wild strawberry and spice. Full-bodied on the palate, it pairs concentrated fruit with mature, well-balanced tannins and finishes fresh and persistent. Its structure and oak ageing suggest potential for further development in bottle, though a specific drinking window is not provided.

Production
The grapes come from south-facing vineyards in Pescara province, at 300–350 metres on medium-textured clay soils at the foot of the Majella (Maiella) mountains. Montepulciano is harvested by hand in the second half of October, then destemmed and fermented in vertical vats, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine matures for around 15 months in new and once-used barrels, with regular racking; it is neither fined nor heavily filtered, receiving only a light final filtration.

Food & Serving
Serve at around 16–18°C with grilled or slow-cooked red meats, lamb, rich tomato-based dishes or aged cheeses. Decant for 30–60 minutes before serving to let the concentrated fruit and spice open up.

Producer
Binomio is a project created through a collaboration between Stefano Inama and Sabatino di Properzio, focused on expressing the character of a historic Montepulciano vineyard in Abruzzo. The project combines regional tradition with attentive barrel ageing, and the wine has received a reported 93-point rating from international critics.
