Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2021 Emidio Pepe 75 cl

Description

History

Emidio Pepe founded his own company in 1964, after having supported his father and also his grandfather who had been making wine since the nineteenth century. Perhaps first of all he believed in the potential of Trebbiano and Montepulciano d’Abruzzo and invested and dedicated all his attention to the cultivation of these two native vines, also demonstrating their great aging capacity and predisposition to the creation of quality wine.

The history of the company still remains a family history, where traditions are handed down from generation to generation and the roots are those of farmers. Today the management of the company is entrusted to the daughters Sofia and Daniela, with their respective young daughters Chiara and Elisa, naturally under the proud supervision of Emidio.
