The Picenes, an ancient Italic people, were an important expression of civilization that flourished during the Iron Age. The province of Ascoli Piceno is today the heart of this people who expressed a civilization, seven centuries of which led the Picenes to dominate the heart of Europe.
The Tenuta De Angelis draws its origins from Piceno territory. In the 1950s the De Angelis family built their first winery for the vinification of the grapes grown on their own slopes as well as those of other local producers.
These were years of intense work, new vineyards were planted in the municipalities of Offida and Castel di Lama. In 1985 a new winery was built to complete the production chain from the vineyard to the bottle.
The evolution and development of this phase was entrusted to Quinto Fausti who together with other producers of the Piceno territory revived important forgotten vines such as Montepulciano, Pecorino and Passerina so as to enrich the story of our territory by enhancing the potential of these native vines.
The third generation of the De Angelis family has arrived and focuses entirely on the development of organic production and the reorganization of communication giving the greatest attention to even the smallest detail of corporate marketing.
Over the years the Tenuta De Angelis has embraced the concepts of health, naturalness and respect of the terroir by applying the philosophy and technology of organic crop production in our vineyards. As well as being organically grown, our vines have permanent grass cover and a limited number of bunches on each vine, this is done to exalt the concepts of the "Logic of Life" and to improve the sensorial quality of the wines in a natural way. The harvesting is done by hand and the grapes are carefully selected and sorted inside the vineyards in accordance with the various wine-making projects. Our approach to winemaking is in full respect of the legislation for organic wines, and our wines are certified compliant both here at our winery as well as by CCPB Srl, an Italian Inspection and Certification body in Bologna.
Historical white grapevine cultivated on the Adriatic side of central Italy. In the enological culture this is considered a wine of exceptional drinkability, pleasing for a sensory minimalism which becomes its strong point. A combination of chicness and style.
Produced from millenary grapevines in the Piceno region. Few grapevines in the world produce such high levels of sugar and organic acid: this unique factor characterizes the sensory profile of a wine rich in freshness and warmth in a synergy of rare pleasantness.
The ancient history of Falerio is written in its Roman name. A name that comes from the ancient city of "Faleria", nowadays known as Falerone. Falerio is the living testimony.
Combines the pleasures of the freshness of a youthful wine with the complex structure of a mature red wine. It is dedicated to those who wish to savour the bouquet of a good, classic wine.
This wine, for us, is the true Meditteranean red wine and represents the maximum vocational expression of the Piceno region. It encompasses the very best of the production philosophy of the Tenuta De Angelis: excellent price-quality ratio. Because, high quality is not always translated into high price.
A didactic and masterful example of how powerful the viticultural vocation of the peninsula truly is, where the sea at the 43rd parallel embraces the land between east and west and creates a unique climate for sunshine, excursions and the holiday season.
Rosé, like white and red, is a true wine and not an alternative. Produced from Montepulciano and Sangiovese grapes fermented without the skins, and thus for this reason alone acquires the pastel pink colour of the must. Fragrance, freshness and agreeableness.
Unfiltered bottled wine to ensure maximum purity of the grape variety. Sensory profile that enjoys a lot of freshness and warmth in a synergy of unique pleasures.
This was the first wine produced in the 1990s in Offida, the heart of the wine-producing area of the Piceno region, to combine autochthonous tradition (Montepulciano ) with international excellence (Cabernet Sauvignon) in a perfect balance of typicality and innovation. Power, harmony, elegance and pure hedonistic wine making.
Produced only in the best vintage years in Offida; a production of approximately 50 - 70 hl per hectare. It is our idea of the best structure for a Rosso Piceno: a wine that defies time for those who are fortunate or wealthy enough to sit back, relax and allow time to slip by.
The project of a grand wine that goes beyond the space and time of the imagination associated with the limited concept of white wines. For this it is bottled in black glass: not even light can age it, and for this its label is of wood, as its desire is to accompany right up to the emotion of drinking.
The exaltation of Passerina wine, the realization of its vocation to freshness, sensorial purity, acidity and exceptional drinkability.
Medium texture tending to clayey between 200 and 350 metres above sea level in the municipalities of Castel di Lama and Offida. Vineyards planted and managed by our winery. Production of grapes 100 q/ha.

It is of utmost importance to us that it is a DOCG. It is a white wine with more mightiness than a great red.
