TASTING NOTES

Zaccagnini is an Abruzzo-based company that has produced excellent quality wines since the 1970s and that today boasts 300 hectares and produces 3 million bottles. It is located in Bolognano, in the province of Pescara, near the Majella national park, in one of the most productive areas of the Abruzzo region. The Zaccagnini winery was founded in 1978 by Marcello Zaccagnini. Over the years it has never stopped developing and acquiring new vineyards. The process is meticulously monitored at every stage of production, ensuring "excellent quality from the bunch to the glass" which has become the family motto. Sold internationally, its wines are among the most loved in the United States and the best-sellers in Italy. Thanks to its vast series of vineyards, the winery does a great job of selecting the grapes, studying the best soils to grow certain varieties, and ultimately producing superb bottles of wine. The most cultivated variety is Montepulciano, but Zaccagnini also grows Trebbiano, Chardonnay, Passerina and Pecorino for the whites, as well as Cabernet Franc and Cannonau for reds. The 'Montepulciano d'Abruzzo' Tralcetto is a dry red wine produced from 100% Montepulciano grapes. Grape selection in the winery and steeping the skins after pressing. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel vats. Ageing then takes place in Slavonian oak barrels for about 6 months and 3 months in the bottle. Ruby red in colour. Delicate notes of cherry and berries are discernible on the nose. Enjoyable, fresh and light in the mouth where the fruit reveals its crispness. A red wine from Abruzzo to drink young everyday throughout the meal, especially ideal with salami and game and simple meat dishes. Read more Read less
THE WINERY

Zaccagnini

In the province of Pescara, Abruzzo, near the town of Bolognano, stands the Zaccagnini winery, founded in 1978 as a family business and grown immensely until today. Their goal and motto has always been “total quality, from the bunch to the glass”, and this philosophy can be detected on the palate . Now internationally known, the winery has 300 hectares of vines. Despite its size, however, every single stage of production, from the cultivation of the grapes through to processing and sale, is controlled with care and passion down to the smallest detail. In addition, the breadth of the area covered offers a great variety of soils and microclimates, which allow for a careful selection of grapes, all indigenous, which are then destined for the different types of wines. There are many varieties of products processed and sold here. Those made from Pecorino and Passerina grapes dominate the white wines scene, followed by Chardonnay and Trebbiano Abruzzese. As for reds, the main one is naturally Montepulciano, followed by Cannonau and Cabernet Franc. Name and address of producer/distributor: Zaccagnini - Contrada Pozzo, 4, 65020 Bolognano (PE). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
