ZACCAGNINI TRALCETTO MONTEPULCIANO 750 ml

Discover the story behind Zaccagnini Tralcetto Montepulciano, a red wine straight from the heart of Abruzzi in Italy. Marcello Zaccagnini kicked off his winery venture in 1978 on a modest small-town farm. What started as a local passion has since captured fans worldwide, all while staying true to its origins. Every single bottle arrives adorned with a dry vine cutting plucked right from the estate's vineyards—a quiet nod to the land that nurtures it.

This 100% Montepulciano pours with a graceful lightness that belies its rich depth. Imagine savoring layers of plum and dark cherry weaving through hints of mocha, leather, and a whisper of smoke. It's the kind of wine that unfolds gently on the palate, inviting you to linger over each sip. At 12.50% ABV in a classic 750 ml bottle, it strikes that perfect everyday balance—approachable yet memorable.

Picture pairing it with a hearty plate of eggplant parmigiana, where the wine's vibrant fruitiness cuts through the cheesy richness. Or reach for smoked cheeses, letting those earthy smoke notes in the glass echo the bold flavors on your board. From casual dinners to quiet evenings unwinding, Zaccagnini Tralcetto Montepulciano fits seamlessly into moments worth celebrating.

What sets this Abruzzi gem apart isn't just the taste—it's the connection to tradition. That vine twig on the bottle isn't mere decoration; it's a piece of the vineyard's soul, bridging the grower’s hands to your table. For wine lovers seeking an authentic Italian red without pretense, this Montepulciano delivers on every level. Affordable at $16.99, it punches above its weight, turning any meal into something special. Bring home a taste of Marcello's legacy and let the Abruzzi hills come alive in your glass.
