Aires is produced from 100% Montepulciano grapes.
The harvest takes place in the period from the end of September to mid October. Maceration for a maximum of ten days, in steel fermenting vats. The wine is then put in steel for about 4 months for the ageing process. Finally it is kept bottled for a short while before being put on sale.
Aires is a young and immediately drinkable wine. Delicate aromas of plum and morello cherry on the nose, robust and full-bodied in the mouth, slightly tannin-rich with a dry flavoursome aftertaste.

Winemaker’s notes: a young, fruity, flavorful Montepulciano d’Abruzzo that shows the powerful temperament of the indigenous grape it’s made of (Montepulciano 100%).
An everyday ruby red with a fruity bouquet, full flavors of plum and cherry, medium-bodied, with smooth tannins and a pleasant after- taste.
