About Tenuta Secolo IX
This wine comes from the Abruzzo region in 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 mountain range and the Majella National Park. In addition to producing high-quality wines, the estate aims to create authentic wines from Abruzzo. Their masterpiece is the sweet Moscato di Castiglione a Casauria. This original variety, dating back to the end of the 17th century, is now cultivated on the estate together with three other indigenous varieties: Montepulciano d’Abruzzo, Trebbiano d’Abruzzo, and Pecorino.
