About Tenuta Secolo IX
This wine comes from the Abruzzo, Eastern Italy. About 40 km from the coastal city of Pescara, lies the Casauria area. The 20-hectare vineyard of Tenuta Secolo IX is located near the Gran Sasso Mountains and the Majella National Park. In addition to quality wines, the domain wants to produce authentic wines from Abruzzo. Their masterpiece is the sweet Moscato di Castiglione a Casauria. The original variety, from the end of the 17th century, nowadays grows on their domain, along with three other indigenous varieties: Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo and Pecorino.
