The Col del Mondo farm was created by three winemakers whose aim was to enhance the wines of the Abruzzo hills improving their distribution and image. Great commitment and many resources have been dedicated to researching wine-making history, the local area characteristics, its soil and its autochthonous vines. Passion for the Abruzzo wine-making history and entrepreneurial spirit, led to an intense control of all the characteristics of the soils and strains of Montepulciano, through separate wine making process of limited quantity of grapes. With the 2001 grape harvest the wine making begun and the product started being marketed.
