Zaccagnini “Tralcetto” Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC 2022 is a deep, ruby Italian red from Abruzzo that nails that classic Montepulciano mix of generosity, savoury depth and sheer drinkability. This Zaccagnini Tralcetto Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2022 comes with the famous little vine twig on the bottle, signalling a traditional, vineyard‑focused style that massively overdelivers for the price.
Expect ripe black cherry, plum and dark berries on the nose, with notes of cocoa, dark chocolate, coffee, warm spice and a touch of tobacco and leather as it opens up. The palate is medium to full‑bodied, smooth and rounded, with juicy dark fruits, mocha‑kissed tannins, hints of black tea and pepper, and a long, gently earthy finish that stays balanced and moreish rather than heavy. It is a versatile, crowd‑pleasing red that feels far smarter than its price tag.
This is absolutely in its element with arrosticini (lamb skewers), grilled or roasted lamb, beef, rich tomato‑based pasta, pizza and hearty stews, as well as hard cheeses and cured meats on a mixed antipasti board. It is the kind of dependable Italian red that you’ll happily pour for everything from mid‑week pasta to a big Sunday roast.
