Fattoria Nicodemi / Fam. Nicodemi
Between the deep blue of the Adriatic Sea to the east and the snowy peaks of the Gran Sasso to the west you find the rolling and charming landscape of Abruzzo. On a hilltop lies the pretty village of Notaresco and not far from it the winery of Elena and Alessandro Nicodemi.
The siblings continue their father's work, dedicated to the local grape varieties Montepulciano and Trebbiano d'Abruzzo. Their ambition is to produce even better wines with each vintage. Their vineyards in the best western and southern slopes of the Colline Teramane DOCG have been cultivated organically for many years. An olive grove is also part of the property, from which a deliciously mild and nutty olive oil is produced.

The Montepulciano grape variety is very rich in extract. That is why all the wines, simple or superior, are full-bodied and deep in colour. The winery's old vines are trained on a pergola so that you can walk underneath. A real pleasure when the grapes are ripe. However, you need Elena's or Alessandro's permission! Further culinary experiences are offered by a family friend in the Ristorante Borgo Spoltino, about 20 kilometres away, where you can also stay overnight in a unique atmosphere.
