Cantina Sangro Montepulciano D’Abruzzo DOC

The Sangro winery was founded in 1971 by 110 members to transform the precious grapes of local winemakers into something big as a cooperatve.

The Sangro river is one of the most important waterways on the Adriatc side of the Apennines. Its wide valley, near the mouth, has always been a fertle agricultural area, crossed in the past centuries by focks in seasonal transhumance between the mountains and the Tavoliere delle Puglia.

The Sangro wine is born in the heart of central Abruzzo, between the Maiella Mountain, the sunny hills and the Trabocchi Coast. It is expression of a natural vocaton of the territory, nourished by traditons, experiences and passions that have been handed down for generatons.

This Montepulciano comes from the municipality of Fossacesia and neighboring areas, the most suitable hills facing south, south-east, and a height above sea level ranging from 50 to 200 meters.
