Rent a vineyard of Montepulciano and in 2006 performs its first bottling, alone, starting from scratch and without the help of anyone. Since then it has been a while, but Cristiana continues to produce its wines that are concentrated alive with sanguine and visceral territoriality. In the vineyard, it grows the most classic Abruzzese grapes such as Trebbiano and Montepulciano, but also mixed rows of Malvasia, Grüner Veltiner, Riesling and Gewürztraminer that allow it to experiment with unusual and unusual assemblies for Abruzzo, vinifying them in white with maceration on the skins.
