Emidio Pepe Montepulciano d`Abruzzo 1975

The Winery

Pepe, Emidio

A balance in the vineyard, achieved after years of work, thanks to the expert hands of the grower Emidio who, with his 55 years of harvest experience, was able to perfectly determine the nourishment of the plants, the soil tilling, the pruning and the vegetation of the vines, limiting any kind of intervention in the vineyard and in the cellar. No chemical products are used, even in the most difficult years and conditions. No selected yeasts to make the alcoholic fermentation start and no enzymes are added to encourage the genesis of perfumes. Only natural products such as copper crystals, mine sulphur and biodynamic preparations are actually used, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. All of this just to return the terroir, the climate and the culture through the distinctive personality of the Montepulciano and the Trebbiano d’Abruzzo.

Summary

The Emidio Pepe Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 1975 is a distinguished representation of Abruzzo's winemaking heritage. This vintage, crafted by a biodynamic pioneer, showcases a meticulously traditional approach with hand-destemmed fruit from pergola-trained vines, fermented in cement using native yeasts. Now regarded as fully mature, it reveals complex aromas of dried cherry, leather, and tobacco, complemented by balsamic herbs, iron, and truffle notes. The wine exhibits lively acidity, enhancing its savory profile. Given the potential for bottle variation, gentle decanting is advised to fully appreciate this classic red.
