Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo is an Italian DOC classification of a rosé (Italian: rosato) style wine made from the Montepulciano grape in Italy's Abruzzo wine region. The name cerasuolo (lit. 'cherry-red') relates to the deep color the wine obtains from even very brief skin-contact with the highly pigmented skins of the Montepulciano grapes.
