Tasting Notes: This Montepulciano opens with concentrated aromas of dark morello cherry and crushed blackberries, layered over subtle balsamic undertones and a hint of dark chocolate. On the palate, it is warm and expansive, showcasing a robust structure with firm, chewy tannins that provide a sturdy backbone for the dense fruit profile. A distinct mineral quality runs through the mid-palate, leading into a finish marked by roasted spices and rustic herbs. The balance between its velvety texture and natural brightness makes it a vibrant expression of the variety, offering depth without feeling overly heavy.
Estate History: Torre dei Beati was established in 1999 by Fausto Albanesi and Adriana Galasso, who took over a family vineyard originally planted by Adriana’s father in the 1970s. Located in Loreto Aprutino, a prestigious sub-region of Abruzzo, the estate takes its name from a detail in a fourteenth-century fresco in the local church of Santa Maria in Piano representing the "Tower of the Blessed." From its inception, the winery has been committed to organic viticulture, focusing on the unique expression of the Montepulciano and Trebbiano d’Abruzzo grapes. By combining traditional cultivation methods with a modern approach to temperature-controlled fermentation and careful oak aging, the estate has earned a reputation for producing wines that balance power with elegance and territorial integrity.
