Ilauri 'Bajo' Montepulciano 2022

Drinks Best: Now - 3 years

A shared passion for wine united Antonella and Rodrigo Redmont. Captivated by the alluring landscape and rich agricultural history of Loreto Aprutino in Abruzzo, they decided to not just make their home there but plant vineyards as well. They have sustainably farmed their land for over 20 years but the olive groves are well over a century old.  Just 12 miles from the Adriatic sea, these vineyards produce wines with vibrant acidity and intense floral aromatics.  “Bajo” is a fruit-driven wine that shows bright red fruit, subtle spice and red flowers on on the nose with a full body structure and great acidity sure to pair with pizza night or casual outdoor sipping.

Pairing: Grissini - prosciutto wrapped breadsticks
