Cancelli Rosso 2019

£21.95

Cancelli Rosso is a sublimely focused and expressive red natural wine made from 100% Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. It is named after the single cru where the 40 years-old vines are organically grown at an altitude of 350-500 mt. a.s.l.; the thermal excursion and high elevation imbues the grapes with exceptional character and finesse. Rabasco Cancelli Rosso is rustic, sincere, and incredibly bright and expressive; it tastes like children laughing in the summertime, crushed Morello cherries, spiced rhubarb, turmeric, and balsamic herbs.

Producer Profile

Vini Rabasco

Jole Rabasco, the soft-spoken and always jovial iron lady of Abruzzo’s natural wine, purchased the farm back in 2005 when she decided to embrace the mission of crafting rustic yet complex natural wines that hark back to the region’s rich viticulture and winemaking tradition. Nestled between the Maiella Massif and the Adriatic sea, the farm is comprised of about 9 hectares, all planted with local varieties such as Trebbiano and Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. Each wine comes from 4 different crus, allowing us to experience the different personalities of each grape in the different vineyards. The vines are farmed organically, with some biodynamic methods, and nothing is added or taken away in the cellar. These are exceptional wines that shine with the unmistakable light of pure terroir-driven expressiveness and are born of true love for Abruzzo.
