It is a rare and extraordinarily brilliant Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo that does not stoop to fashion. The bouquet is that of a truly grand wine: early hints of rose, then meadow flowers and a pomegranate and cherry finish. With distinct notes of mineral and spice giving it a perfectly balanced body, Solante is complex and intriguing in spite of its youth with a persistent warmth that never overwhelms, counterbalanced by a rich marine sapidity.
