Notes from producer:
The name of the estate derives from the detail of a large 14th century fresco, which adorns the local church of S. Maria in Piano. In the representation of the Judgement Day, the “Tower of the Blessed” (“Torre dei Beati”) is the final goal that souls, who have reached the after-life, strive to gain access to after many efforts and difficult trials.
This parable reflects the inspiration principles of our business, which is based on the desire to express, thanks to extremely careful selections in the vineyard and winery, the best native grapes that we cultivate in this particularly apt area of Loreto Aprutino.
Our family-run winemaking business started in 1999, when we decided to start managing ourselves the vineyard that our father Rocco had been looking after since 1972. Since we believe that it’s impossible to separate the quality of a wine from its naturalness, we immediately converted the vineyard to organic farming and our first bottle came onto the market in 2000.
Tasting Notes from Torre dei Beati:
"The straw yellow with light gold shades is a dense introduction to a full body mouth. Fine and elegant nose, of citrus and white flowers, rounded by honey hints but vibrant of the typical herbs flavors of the variety (sage, rosemary, lavender). Smoothly entering the mouth, where the zesty acidity and minerality move up the tasting balance giving a long, mouthwatering persistence. Perfect pairing with creamy and fat dishes, like risotto, gnocchi with cheese sauce, Adriatic see fried fish, medium-aged pecorino cheese."
