Belposto Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Belposto Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a red wine from the Abruzzo region of central Italy, where vineyards stretch from the Adriatic coast to the Apennine mountains. Made from 100% Montepulciano grapes, this wine is produced through traditional methods including hand harvesting, gentle crushing, and fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, it undergoes several months of aging in steel tanks before bottling, resulting in a wine that captures both freshness and character. Bottled at 13% alcohol by volume (ABV), it reflects the heritage of the Montepulciano varietal, which has thrived in Abruzzo since the 18th century.

Belposto Montepulciano d'Abruzzo has received critical acclaim, including a "Best Buy" and "Highly Recommended" rating for the wine, as noted by the Beverage Testing Institute in October 2020. Its recognition underscores its quality and appeal among Italian red wines. It pairs beautifully with shellfish, grilled swordfish or salmon, pasta dishes such as lasagna, pizza, beef tenderloin, roasted lamb, tacos, chicken, and aged cheeses.
