Valle Reale

About Winery and Wines

The Italian region of Abruzzo is the greenest region of Europe, with 36% of its entire surface covered by three national parks, a regional park, and more than thirty nature reserves. With a territory that is more than two-thirds above 750 m. a.s.l., Valle Reale is situated between the provinces of Pescara and L’Aquila, at the point where the three parks intersect: Parco Nazionale del Gran Sasso e I Monti Della Laga to the north, Parco Nazionale Della Majella to the south, and Parco Regionale Naturale del Sirente-Velino to the northwest. Valle Reale is a farm consisting of vineyards and vegetable gardens, where mountain agriculture is practiced daily, always with respect for the delicate natural balance that surrounds it and the traditions of this area of Abruzzo. The vineyards grow along a plain that is 350 m above sea level, facing southeast to enjoy the rays of the sun that rises over the Majella and the Morrone Mountains. The vineyards thrive, nestled amidst the mountains that form a sort of amphitheater around them. There are two adjacent towns: Popoli (PE), situated at the beginning of the Peligna Valley, and Capestrano (AQ), overlooking the Plain of Ofena.

The vineyards of Valle Reale are subdivided into parcels into two different adjacent towns: Popoli (PE), situated at the beginning of the Peligna Valley, and Capestrano (AQ), overlooking the Plain of Ofena. Each parcel is marked by a specific Cru and identified by names linked to the history of these places that, thanks to their peculiar soil and climatic conditions, paint the highly unique profiles of Valle Reale wines.
