San Nicola is a boutique winery in an small town called Pollutri, in the region of Abruzzo east coast of Italy, by the Adriatic Sea. We grow the local grape Montepulciano D' Abruzzo and the grapes are handpicked in order to preserve the full quality of the grapes. This wine is not exported yet, only sold in restaurants in the area. Due to interest of some wine lovers we are working to find the correct market for our wine abroad. We have an Italian Restaurant in Gran Canaria (San Andrea-located in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) where our wines are offered and there is a high volume of international diners insisting they really enjoy our wines: red, white & rose with a very positive feedback. At the moment we are producing 150.000 bottles a year (80.000 red, the rest distributed white & rose). We have the possibility to increase this number with no problem so ever if we find the correct market where the quality will be appreciated. There is also the possibility to make bag in box, or to make 1.5l upon request. Our wine is meant to be serve in restaurants or sold in liquor stores where people who understand quality wines will be inspired by trying a new bottle that is not exported yet and definitely not disappointed.
