Tasting Notes
If there is one wine that typifies Italian table wine, it is probably the Zaccagnini Montepulciano. It's such a fluid, well integrated and balanced red as it lies in both the fruit and savoury spectrums, neither one dominating, but present in harmony. The palate is much the same, seemless. I can't fault this one and it's a really simple pleasure that will always have a place on my dinner table. - Chris L
Founded in 1978 in Bolognano, Abruzzo, Cantina Zaccagnini has grown from a small family venture into one of the region’s best-known wineries, easily recognised by the signature piece of vine tied around each bottle. Under the guidance of Marcello Zaccagnini, the estate focuses on showcasing Abruzzo’s native varieties, especially Montepulciano, alongside Trebbiano and Pecorino, producing wines that are approachable yet deeply rooted in local tradition.
The vineyards lie between the Adriatic Sea and the Apennine Mountains, benefitting from significant diurnal shifts that bring freshness and aromatic lift to the wines. Farming is sustainable, with close attention paid to maintaining biodiversity and healthy soils. In the cellar, the approach combines modern technology with traditional methods, aiming for purity of fruit, balance and consistency.
Zaccagnini’s wines are celebrated worldwide for their accessibility, generosity and sense of place—an authentic taste of Abruzzo delivered with both family pride and broad appeal.
