Region: Abruzzo
Set in a beautiful national park 1,000 feet above sea level, the Pizzolo family of Valle Reale vineyards creates stunning, affordable wines from the Montepulciano grape. Grown in Abruzzo, this varietal is known for producing deeply colored, rich, spicy wines that match up perfectly with hearty pastas, roasted chicken, and, most notably, the regional barbecue specialty, lamb arrosticini. Concentrated and silky with dark fruit and a hint of smokiness and spice.
