Although the Montepulciano vine is grown inside a vast area covering almost all the provinces of Abruzzo, only the wine produced on the Hills of the province of Teramo have been awarded with the title of DOCG (Registered and Certified Designation of Origin) wine.

Its superior quality and distinctive features are due to the particularly favourable microclimate of this area. The calcareous-clay subsoil is excellent for vine growing; the presence of several streams encourage growth, which is also enhanced by the sea nearby.
