Azienda Vitivinicola Cordoni
(Winery in Montepulciano d'Abruzzo)
About Winery and Wines
The agricultural estate of the family Cordoni is located on the gently rolling green hills of Ancarano, on the border between Marche and Abruzzo, just half an hour away by car from the Adriatic sea, and about the same from the mountains of the National Park of Gran Sasso Mountain.

The Cordoni's land benefits from an ideal hillside position and has an average altitude of approximately 280 metres above sea level. It's characterised by a calcareous and stony, relatively arid soil. The vineyards benefit from a well balanced microclimate, and include Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo and native variants of Pecorino and Passerina vines. The first plants date back to 30 years ago and are trained in the "tendone" system (a 3 m x 3 m high trellis supported by crossed wires – a typical Abruzzo training system), while the other vineyards were developed at different times in the subsequent years. The latest development was the planting of over one hectare of Pecorino vines which are trained in the "simple hanging curtain" system. Quality, rather than quantity, is the priority and primary consideration for the Cordoni family, so the production of grapes is purposely limited, both at the stage of dry pruning and at the post-setting stage, with frequent vigorous thinning out of grapes.
