Bold. Balanced. A powerful yet refined red from Abruzzo’s heart.
From the heart of Abruzzo’s rolling hills, Ottobre Rosso is Tenuta I Fauri’s ode to the changing season — when the vineyards glow crimson and gold, and the Montepulciano grape reaches its perfect ripeness. The estate, proudly organic and family-run, crafts this wine with a deep respect for the land and a focus on purity of expression.
In the glass, it shows a rich ruby-red colour and an inviting nose of ripe cherries, wild berries, and soft spices, with a touch of earth and herbs that recall the Abruzzese countryside. On the palate, it’s full yet graceful, with juicy fruit, velvety tannins, and a vibrant freshness that makes it instantly drinkable. It’s a Montepulciano that balances warmth and energy beautifully — approachable, but full of character.
For Irish wine lovers, Ottobre Rosso brings the comforting soul of Italy’s autumn to the table. It pairs wonderfully with roasted meats, hearty pastas, or a simple cheese board, making it an easy choice for cosy dinners and relaxed evenings.
Why we love it:
We love Ottobre Rosso for its honesty and heart. It’s a wine that captures the essence of Abruzzo’s landscape — generous, warm, and full of life. Every sip brings a touch of Italian countryside charm to Ireland, offering both comfort and vibrancy in perfect harmony.
