Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour. Located in the province of Chieti, nestled in the hills surrounding the small village of Frisa, Collefrisio is a young Abruzzo winery founded by Amedeo De Luca and Antonio Patricelli. Both hailing from winemaking families, the two decided to join forces in 2004 to establish this modern winery that makes top-quality wines with excellent value from indigenous varieties. Collefrisio Ten Vintages is a limited-edition red wine from Abruzzo produced with Montepulciano d'Abruzzo grapes from the estate's vineyards, selected from the finest barriques. Vinification follows the traditional method with long maceration, and the finished wine then ages in wood for two years and briefly in stainless steel after blending. In the glass, the wine reveals an intense, deep garnet red color. Its aromatic profile is broad and ripe, with fragrant notes of blackberry and pomegranate, berries and cherries, followed by spicy hints on a forest floor background. On the palate, it is soft and smooth, rounded and full, generous and concentrated. It has velvety tannins and a long, fruity finish. It is a well-structured red that pairs well with sliced beef and game stews.
