Colle Secco embodies the terroir-driven winemaking of Cantina Tollo's the long-term expertise is at the root of Colle Secco line which underwent an important rebranding focusing on the familiar triangle shape.

Elegance and innovation were the drivers of this change of pace aimed at providing a rich experience for the eye and to the touch preluding the aromas and tasty texture of the wine. Golden details, refined colours, tactile sensations are part of this journey towards Abruzzo and its native grapes.
