Terre Tollesi

Wine · PDO · 1 municipality

Recognised since 2009, the Terre Tollesi DOCG stands out in Abruzzo for its extreme geographic concentration, confined entirely to the single municipality of Tollo. This highly localized appellation is cultivated by just three verified producers, making it one of the smallest designations in the region. Unlike more expansive regional wines, the base Terre Tollesi Rosso requires a strict minimum of 95% Montepulciano grapes, yielding a dry, medium-to-full-bodied red with a minimum alcohol content of 13.0% vol. The wine delivers intense aromas of cherry, blueberry, and licorice, offering a precise, terroir-driven expression that distinguishes Tollo from its larger viticultural neighbours.
