Liqueur of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wine and red fruits

The search for ancient texts, the use of the best wines of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, the selection of red fruits, the ongoing trials to harmonize each extract and each spice: This is the formula for Yppocras Prunus Elixir, a liquor born from a passion for food and wine and the desire to recreate history in the traditional way, to provide the possibility of reliving the atmosphere of the great courts of the past where this drink was very much appreciated. Prunus Elixir stems from the experience gained from Medieval Elixir, the first product created by Yppocras, that was capable of recalling the passion and wisdom of our ancestors, extending a range of products with an impressive historical legacy and modern tastes.
