Winemaker Notes

La Valentina Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo is a versatile rosé wine made from the same grapes as the winery’s Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. Shortly after the grapes begin their cold maceration, a portion of the juice—at this point, only lightly colored—is drawn off to be fermented like a white wine. Abruzzo is recognized as one of Italy’s best sources for rosato wine, or cerasuolo as it is known in this region. Being made from 100% Montepulciano grapes, this rosé entry in La Valentina’s Classica line has more body than the usual rosé, allowing it to pair well with a wide range of foods.

Professional Ratings

90 James Suckling

Bright cherry color with notes of red berry fruit, plums and violets. It’s medium-bodied, rich and fruity. Straightforward but delicious. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

89 Vinous

The 2023 Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo presents a translucent cherry-red hue in the glass. Savory and floral on the nose, it unfolds with rose petals, leather, tea leaves, strawberry and cherry aromas. Zippy and energetic in the mouth, a chiseled, bracing phenolic structure gives the wine shape and form. The 2023 finishes clean and refreshing, if a hair short—a particularly vinous style of Rosé that would certainly be at home on the dinner table.
