The Thalè line of the Casal Thaulero estate represents the most prestigious line of this winery. The name “Thalè” evokes the abruzzo dialect which means “that is”. The specificity of these wines is the fact that they are produced with the body and the power of the ancients wines of Abruzzo so they are made exactly such they used to be. It is a limited production available only during the best years. They are made by 100% Montepulciano grapes cultivated in the Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOP area.
Characteristics of the Montepulciano d'Abruzzo "THALE'" DOC
It has an intense red color almost garnet with deep purple reflection typical of the Montepulciano d’Abruzzo wine. The presence of red fruits is constant and penetrating with a good persistence with vanilla and spicy aromas. The taste is enveloping, bodied and balanced, pleasantly tannic, long and persistent.
