Zaccagnini
Azienda Agricola Zaccagnini
was founded in 1978 in the village of Bolognano near Pescara. With
the total annual production growing from 1,000 to 800,000 bottles
in around two decades, Zaccagnini embodies the success that has
come down on southern wine regions. Key to this success is
Montepulciano, a variety producing muscular red wines with relative
smooth tannins and refreshing acid, its easy drinkability and very
accessible. Its wide appeal is shown in all of winemaker Concezio
Marulli's wines, ranging from the uncomplicated Kasaura through to
the premium Chronicon and San Clemente, the latter a yearly
contender for Gambero Rosso's Three Glasses. The cane-cut and late
harvested Clematis is the lusciously sweet and hedonistic
interpretation of this variety.
Apart from the red Montepulciano grape, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, Riesling, Chardonnay and Moscato di Castiglione are grown in the estate's vineyards. Those white varieties produce wines including the fresh and vibrant Bianco di Ciccio and the Plaisir, a rich and honeyed desert wine from the IGT of Colline Pescaresi. http://www.cantinazaccagnini.it/
