Food match
In Abruzzo we are famous for barbecues, and this wine is perfect with any grilled meat. Pecorino cheese is also great with it. On a vegetarian side, any grilled vegetables, especially zucchini, aubergines and bell peppers, are great companions to it, but creamy risotto is also delicious, as well as tasty legume/bean soups.
