The Miracoli Estate
The co-operative Madonna dei Miracoli of Casalbordino is located at the foot of Galante’s Hill, a few meters from the golden beaches of Casal Brdino Lido. It was founded in 1960, thanks to the commitment of 42 small wine growers who shared the same aim to develop the production of the well-known local hills, where the vine has been carefully grown, with patience and devotion, since ancient times. The winery was named in honor of the Madonna who appeared in Casalbordino’s countryside in 1527. Today the co-op counts 650 members.
The Miracoli Vineyard
They farm about 1,400 hectares (3,458 acres) of vines. Many different grape varieties are grown in the area: Montepulciano and Trebbiano d’Abruzzo, Sangiovese, Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Vermentino. There, moderating sea breezes from the Adriatic heighten the bouquet of this naturally prolific and robust grapes. The soil is calcareous and stony which is excellent for drainage.
Miracoli Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is made from 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzzo.
A bright ruby red color with a violet hue. It offers a soft and pleasant vinous bouquet with a fruity reminiscent of Montepulciano grape. A dry, smooth, well-balanced flavor with a bitter aftertaste. Velvety tannins and a good acid balance. Lingering on the finish.
It will accompany all meals, such as poultry and various meat dishes, as well as cheese and cold cuts.
Lodovico Stofuori Timorasso Bianco is made from 100% Timorasso.
The name 'sto fuori' means that it is out of the Timorasso classic area ( that is south -east Piedmont) and also a little bit of ‘madness’ because to plant Timorasso in Langhe you must be Fuori ( italian expression to say a little mad).
Yellow straw color with notes of broom flowers, pear aroma and crushed stones.. Fresh in the mouth, tasty with lovely touches of mineral and grapefruit. Tangy acidity keeps it fresh and bright.
It’s a perfect wine to pair with fish, white meat with aromatic herbs and cheese where it reaches its elegance and fragrance.
