Wine from Abruzzo
Filter
The Abruzzo wine region in Italy with over 65% of the region being mountainous. The Apennines peaks actually reach up to 9000 feet above sea level. The region lies between the foothills of the Apennines to the Adriatic Coast. The vineyards on the hillside are planted on calcareous clay that benefits from significant sun exposure that is ventilated thanks to the dry breezes from the Adriatic. All four provinces produce Montepulciano, Chieti, L’Aquila, Pescara, and Teramo. The southern province, Chieti, produces the largest quantity of wine. L’Aquila, which is the most mountainous province, produces a dry rose, which is labeled Cerasuolo. The most favored vineyards are in Pescara and Teramo, which is located in the north. These two provinces have more ferrous clay and limestone and are less fertile. The cooler climates produce the most concentrated wines. There were about 18,000 acres of wine vineyards in 2004.
The wine of Abruzzo is often a deep colored red with spice and pepper notes, and can be described as rustic. These wines are highly aromatic with an almost syrupy, thick mouth feel.
In the late 20th and early 21st century, Abruzzo earned the reputation of having the most exported wines in Italy.

Halter Ranch Vineyard Ancestor Estate Reserve is made from 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Malbec, 17% Petit Verdot,
Their flagship wine, Ancestor is their Bordeaux-style reserve blend, and an homage to the Ancestor Tree, the largest Coast Live Oak on record. The 2019 Ancestor showcases aromas of red currant and dark chocolate along with subtle hints of cinnamon and clove. The entry is soft and rich with layered flavors of blueberry, blackberry, and dark cherry. The mid- palate is thick and mouth coating with balanced acid. The finish is framed by integrated tannins and delicate flavors of caramel and truffle.
Pair with roasted meats, reduction sauces, and hearty stews.
Review:
Cabernet is more than half of this wine, with Petit Verdot and Malbec making up the rest. Rich and ripe with deep black plums and plenty of Christmas spice with just a touch of evergreen tips freshness. The palate is lushly fruited, rich with blackberry jam, chocolate and cherries and a touch of smoky cedar to finish. Rich, redolent fruits and dusty cocoa powder mark the finish deep and long-lasting. (CP)

Sequentis is a limited-edition Reserve Merlot that advances our devotion to Bordeaux varieties. The remarkable 2021 vintage opens with heady aromas of rose petal, plum, blackberry jam, cooked strawberry, ripe black cherry and baking spice. A medium-bodied mouthfeel floods the senses with extraordinary complexity, including layered flavors of pomegranate, raspberry, blackberry, coconut, tobacco and vanilla. Balanced acidity and fine tannins converge on a smooth, velvety finish.
Review:
The Daou hallmark of toasted pecan and walnut aromas show on the nose of this Merlot, which also offers ripe berry and toasted herb touches. The palate carries the savory, nutty tone as well, with dark cherry providing fruit and firm tannins holding strong. Drink now-2035.
