Food and Wine Pairing with our Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC Riserva Bakán
It needs time to reveal itself, so we recommend opening it before tasting, at a temperature between 16 and 18 degrees, in a spacious glass with a wide rim.

Excellent with well-structured and tasty dishes: appetizers, starters, pasta dishes, vegetarian dishes, red meats, and medium to long-aged cheeses. Cured meats, pappardelle with Bolognese sauce, garganelli with walnut and celery sauce, stuffed beef rolls, or a well-aged Pecorino from Castel del Monte.
