Terreum 91 Passerina

Terreum 91 celebrates Giannicola Di Carlo’s strong bond with the land of Abruzzo. 1991 is the year in which the first European organic certification was awarded to the Di Carlo Family wines. The Dragonfly is the symbol of the vineyards where these wines originate, immersed in a pristine ecosystem dominated by a lake and ancient limestone caves: the Bosco Valle Verde of the Di Carlo Family.
