Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo DOC Superiore

To keep us on our toes we need gutsy ideas and courage in barrels. To change our way of perceiving our vines is an ongoing challenge that often leads us to experiment with new approaches. A spirit of adventure and curiosity is our lifelong travel companion and we’re not afraid to explore off the beaten track. Notàri Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo DOC Superiore is the result of this attitude, developing from the need to look around us for new inspiration.

This is our first vintage, from the 2020 harvest, and comes from our intention to reveal the hidden aspects of the Montepulciano grape and produce a wine that respects the typicality of Cerasuolo but at the same time is more complex, structured and intense.
We’re proud of the result and of this new label added to the Fattoria Nicodemi line. The wine is stylish and structured, and with a cellarability that will make it a success even further down the line. We can’t wait for you to taste it.
