Offering a light pink blush complemented by aromatics of dew-laden roses and the pleasing saline mineral tones, this wine complements its ripe bosc pear and smooth flavor of vine-ripened blackberry with a gentle but persistent acidity and fruit-forward flavor. Proof that quality does exist under $15 a bottle, Per Linda Cerasuolo has become a signature on our shelves and is one of our best-selling wines for easy drinking at the table or for pouring at a gathering of friends. Cerasuolo, the Abbruzzese word for "rosé," shows us how delicious and practical a blush wine from the Montepulciano grape can be; pair it with classic fish dishes of the Adriatic (prawns, clams, or fish stew), as well as pizza and tomato-based pastas.

Cantina Frentana Per Linda is located in Rocca San Giovanni, a province of Chieti. This is an agricultural cooperation formed by 500 vine growers who attend 750 hectares of vineyards in the Area Frentana, a name that is derived by the ancient people, Frentani, who populated that region. The cantina was founded in 1958 by the doctor, Francesco D'Agostino, who was trying to protect the local producers from the uncertainties linked to the free market of the grapes. At first, the idea was to vinify the grapes and sell the wine to bottling companies. Over time, this society became a winery itself and took over the entire process of winemaking. This evolution required ample changes to the productive and organizational model of operation. The company added a lot more attention and care to the quality of each different phase of the process, from the vineyards implants to the bottling, and the sales services. Per Linda, is a private label that Cantina Frentana is making especially with Vignaioli Selection, with the guaranty of its highest quality and care each step of the way.
