Umani Ronchi Jorio Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC 2022

The name of the wine is intended as a tribute to the great twentieth-century Abruzzese poet Gabriele D’Annunzio, who made his wild, provincial native soil into a “barbaric” novelty, exciting and transgressive, with which he stirred and won the public’s favor. Here is D’Annunzio’s dedication to his pastoral tragedy The Daughter of Jorio: “To the land of Abruzzi, to my mother, to my sisters, to my brother in exile, to my buried father, to all my dead, to all my people between the mountains and the sea, this song  of acient blood I consecrate.”
