COLLINE TERAMANE: the first Abruzzo D.O.C.G.
 
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
It has been since 1992 that DOC Montepulciano d’Abruzzo can make use of “Colline Teramane” under zone indication that is referred to the wine produced in the hilly lands of the province of Teramo. After 11 years the longed-for acknowledgment eventually came and gives it the full right to enter the Italian restricted DOCG, Guaranteed and Controlled Origin Denomination.
The wine it comes from is Montepulciano (not to be mistaken for the Toscana town having the same name). Montepulciano is considered typically from Abruzzo. The wines that are obtained are fruited through naturally soft tannins; they are provided with a good alcohol rate and they can be placed at a high level within the national and international oenological scenario.

How to recognize it
Each label must mention the Guaranteed and Controlled Origin Denomination near all the other indications provided by the law: the specific region the product comes from; product Denomination that consists of the coupling of the grapevine variety the wine comes from and of the geographical areas where this variety is grown; wine nominal volume; name or corporate name and bottler’s seat; bottler’s name and code that can also be shown on the closing system (cork or crown cap); State name; lot Indication; ecological Indications.
