Cooked wine is a typical Abruzzo tradition that has been handed down since the 10th century BC and which was in danger of disappearing. Driven by the desire to renew the habits of our ancestors, we have kept this custom alive by following the principles we have been taught: full respect for the biological rhythms of the vineyard and passion for work.

After many years of experience with the Marramiero Brut and the maturation of the Pinot Nero vineyards, the passion has pushed us to compare ourselves with a classic Rosé method.

It is refined for 120 months.

It comes from particularly suitable areas of the Terre dei Vestini, where the low yields of grapes per hectare are not the result of any forcing: it is the soil itself that, by its nature, gives balance to the vineyard, ensuring that each cluster contains within itself a extraordinary concentration of quality. It is aged for 40 months: initially with fermentation and long maceration in Ganymede, then in stainless steel vats and subsequently in fine oak barriques to be completed with a stay in the bottle for at least 6 months.

It originates from small bunches of Chardonnay, harvested manually in a vineyard that over the years has reached the right balance to produce grapes of great concentration. It is fermented in small oak barrels where it remains for a long period, so as to enrich its complex aging.

Authenticity and ease go hand in hand in love, but can they happily bind together in a wine? What is the recipe for greatness? Adapt to trends or reject them? Is madness doing what others do or creating a personal taste by selecting native vines? For my way of being, always restless and never satiated with questions, the answer is fluctuating. For this I have decided to propose some of my best productions within this selection. The wines of Vinosophia rediscover the ancient native grape varieties, interpreting them in the most authentic way in search of the fatal attraction, seduction and memory. The wines of Vinofollia adapt the great international vines without distorting their essence. Am I insane, am I wise? Get an idea by enjoying my vinosophical ideas. Alluring because in search of emotions. Surprising because bored with predictability. Fogged by global trends. Satisfied with my way of making an international wine "homegrown". In this Pinot Grigio with floral scents, strongly mineral, senselessly citrusy, there is the lucid madness of my thought.

The screw cap allows you to open the bottle easily wherever you are, keeping the aromatic fragrance intact without smudging. Masciarelli 's daily wine par excellence, it is the company's best-selling product, present in over 50 countries. The pure Montepulciano grapes from the vineyards of San Martino sulla Marrucina, Ripa Teatina, Fara Filiorum Petri and Villamagna, all in the province of Chieti, are vinified with permanence on the skins for about 15 days, followed by 20 months of aging in steel. The warmth and freshness of the wide range of berries seduce at first taste: dark cherries, blackberries, black raspberries and undergrowth. The palate is taut and finely enveloped in subtle tannins and a pleasant acidity. Medium to full bodied and very juicy in the finish. The wine for those who want to savor all the fruit and joy of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo.
