Agricola Caprera Sotto il Ceraso Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo 2021 Review
There’s rosé and then there’s Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo. Italy’s hilly, green Abruzzo region is famed for this very specific, dark style of rosé — with bottles from cult producers in the region garnering prices well-over $150. For those curious to explore this style and the top wines of this region, this bottle captures all of the concentrated flavor and complexity of a great Cerasuolo, at a more approachable price. A stunning, dark magenta-hued wine made from organically farmed, 80-year-old vines, the palate delivers juicy notes of ripe cherries and dried herbs. This is a rosé for the chilled red drinker.
