Description

Humus: through Abruzzo’s tradition

The word 'transhumance' derives from the verb 'transhume', ie transiting on the ground, crossing: the verb is the union of the two Latin words 'trans', which means beyond, and 'humus' which means soil, ground. In Italy this ancient custom is built upon transporting (precisely 'transhuming') the animals from the mountains to the rich pastures of the Gargano and from this activity takes its name what, probably, is the most famous wine and representative of Abruzzo, Montepulciano. Humus is a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo PDO from organic viticulture, a friend of the land and nature, the son of a philosophy that is realized in every production step and that gives a wine of excellent quality.

Ruby red with purple rim, on the nose it smells of blackberry and blueberry jam, vegetable nuances and undergrowth, along with hints of rhubarb and notes that remind talc. The taste is fresh, soft and round, with modulated and long tannins, with typical rusticity in the second beat and a long closing on aromatic vegetal notes reminiscent of the laurel.

Excellent with roasted meat, first courses with meat sauce and medium-aged cheeses.

The Cellar

La Cantina Tollo è nata nel 1960 dall'iniziativa di un piccolo gruppo di persone, animate dalla volontà di valorizzare una tradizione antica e dall'entusiasmo di dare vita ad una nuova esperienza. Due anni dopo ci fu la prima vinificazione e nel 1970 il primo imbottigliamento, quindi l'inserimento di un enologo, per coniugare tradizione e tecnologia ed avviare la produzione del Montepulciano d'Abruzzo e del Cerasuolo. Le uve vengono da viti tradizionalmente allevate a pergola, nei comuni di Tollo e Bucchianico: ci troviamo in zone di mezza collina con terreno argilloso,...
