Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Superiore

Italy
Abruzzo
2025

100% Montepulciano. Praesidium's iconic Cerasuolo comes from four different northeast-facing parcels of Montepulciano, planted in 1965, 1973, 1995, and 2006. Harvested at red-wine ripeness, maceration for 4 days. Long aging in stainless steel.  The Cerasuolo is either a light red or a dark rosè, depending on how one sees and feels it.  It is intensely sappy, surprisingly rich, and has been known to age very well.  Certified organic

"The 2025 Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Terre Aquilane Superiore is a translucent ruby/orange hue, with a bouquet of wild blueberries, white cherries, crushed nectarines and ground cloves. The palate is nearly weighty, with expertly balanced acidity energizing ripe wild berry fruits. Hints of citrus add tension toward the long finish, which leaves a tart cranberry tinge and crisp mineral tones. This glorious Cerasuolo is amazing now, but also has the depth for cellaring."
