Emidio Pepe Montepulciano d`Abruzzo 1979 exemplifies the estate’s dedication to traditional winemaking. Crafted from organically grown grapes, each berry is handpicked and foot-pressed, a rarity today. The must ferments with native yeasts in cement tanks, adhering to an approach free from additional sulphur. Aged for two years in concrete tanks, it retains a raw authenticity reflective of its time. Emidio Pepe has been preserving the integrity of Abruzzo winemaking since 1964, with all labelling and bottling processes conducted meticulously by hand. This vintage encapsulates a moment in Abruzzese history.
