Torre dei Beati

Torre dei Beati is a beautiful Abruzzese winery focusing on high-quality, region-specific wines. A family-run business founded in 1999, the winery has always adhered to a philosophy of natural winemaking, producing organically and respecting the environment. This is one of the oldest and most significant communes in the Pescara province, located in a gently sloping landscape with a prime position for viticulture, where the terroir is exceptionally suited.

They cultivate 21 hectares, situated 25 kilometers from the Adriatic Sea, on the first rolling hills of clay-limestone soil, rising towards the 3,000-meter peaks of Gran Sasso d’Italia, the highest summit of the Apennines. The vineyard's location ensures daily influence from the temperate sea air during the day and cool mountain breezes at night, particularly during the final month of maturation when the region often experiences early snowfall.

Torre dei Beati

Torre dei Beati was founded in 1999 by Adriana Galasso and Fausto Albanesi. The Montepulciano vines were planted about forty years ago by Adriana’s father.

Today, after more than a decade of harvests, Torre dei Beati is a small but highly regarded winery, dedicated to preserving the purest Abruzzese traditions. Their wines are elegant and fresh, true expressions of the Abruzzo terroir, thanks to a meticulous and sustainable management approach that respects the land. Montepulciano and Pecorino, blending ancient and modern, are the result of bold choices, driven by a deep love and passion for winemaking.

Abruzzo

Abruzzo is a very diverse and interesting region, both in terms of the wines produced there and in terms of regional gastronomy.
The presence of vines here dates back to Roman times, and like in many other parts of Italy, the logic of immediate profit was pursued, prioritizing quantity over quality. A decisive change in direction would have to wait until the second half of the 20th century, when the first initiatives aimed at pursuing excellence in agri-food and Abruzzo winemaking began to prioritize quality production and the rediscovery of native grape varieties.

Abruzzo is predominantly mountainous or hilly, bounded to the north by the Tronto River, which marks the border with the Marche, to the east by the Central Apennines which divide it from Lazio, to the south by the Trigno River, beyond which lies Molise, and to the west by the Adriatic Sea.
To the west, we have the mountainous area formed by the Monti della Laga, Gran Sasso, and the Maiella Massif, which gently slopes down to a sub-Apennine hilly area, reaching the Adriatic.

The climate of the region is mild, especially on the Adriatic side.
It becomes more continental as you move inland and with increasing altitude. The average level of precipitation is good, less on the coast and greater inland.

Pescara

The province of Pescara, located along the Adriatic coast, is one of the four provinces that make up the Abruzzo region. Its territory alternates between flat coastal areas and hills covered with vineyards and olive groves, benefiting from a Mediterranean climate. Thanks to its proximity to the sea, this climate creates ideal conditions for viticulture. Pescara, the provincial capital, lies on the Adriatic Sea at the mouth of the Aterno River and represents the heart of this fertile land. The varied landscape of plains and hills allows for the production of wines that reflect the uniqueness of the Abruzzo terroir.

Regarding wine production, the province of Pescara boasts three of the seven DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) appellations recognized in Abruzzo. First and foremost is the Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo DOC, which finds some of its most authentic expressions here. Made primarily from the Montepulciano grape variety, Cerasuolo stands out for its freshness and pleasant drinkability, available in both base and reserve versions.

Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC is another emblem of the Pescara province. This grape variety, capable of expressing unique territorial richness, is divided into five subzones: Alto Tirino, Casauria, Teate, Terre dei Peligni, and Terre dei Vestini. Each of these areas contributes to defining wines with distinctive character, showcasing diverse nuances depending on the terroir.

Completing the list of Pescara's denominations is Trebbiano d’Abruzzo DOC, another significant reference for the province. Made primarily from the Trebbiano Abruzzese, Trebbiano Toscano, and Bombino Bianco grape varieties, Trebbiano d’Abruzzo is characterized by its freshness and acidity, available in both superior and reserve versions.

Finally, the Colline Pescaresi IGT further enriches the province's wine landscape. This designation allows for a wide variety of wines, from whites to reds, using grape varieties best suited to the territory. Pescara thus not only preserves its tradition but also embraces new experiments, enhancing the biodiversity of its terroir.
The climate, typically Mediterranean, benefits from its proximity to the sea, creating optimal conditions for vine cultivation.
