The history of the label:
A Longobard warrior, faithful to King Cuniperto, coming from the lands of Abruzzo to the monastery of San Vincenzo by Abbot Epifanio, fell from a horse in a valley of the ager-Adrianus.
Injured, he remained hidden for a few days in a ravine, healing himself with the waters and mud of a stream coming from the sources of the badlands of Atri. Healed, he retained those thaumaturgical waters and called the stream "Res Illa" in Latin, "that thing" that had cured him. The legend has come down to us handed down over the centuries and the rivulet still bears the name Reilla.
Here our rows, from dawn to dawn, listen to the harmonious flow of the waters and mature our wine.
