Montepulciano between coast and mountains

The Teramo hills connect the Adriatic side of Abruzzo with its mountain interior.

Montepulciano is the principal grape of this red wine from the Teramo hills. The landscape reaches from the coastal hills towards the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga. Its soils include clay and silt, with looser formations nearer the coast. The denomination ties this grape to a defined part of northern Abruzzo, where coastal and inland settings meet.

The delimited Teramo area

The grape zone covers specified territories in Teramo province, including defined areas around Teramo, Atri and Tortoreto. The detailed boundary determines which land belongs to the denomination.
