- Deep ruby-red in colour, this wine exudes vibrant red fruit aromas, complemented by complex notes of plum and red cherry intertwined with a delicate hint of liquorice. Its exquisite balance, smoothness, full-bodied texture, and lingering finish make it an exceptional experience.
Each variety was vinified separately following careful cluster selection. The grapes were destemmed and gently pressed to extract the free-run and pressed must. Fermentation took place at controlled temperatures, and the wine rested on the lees for 12 to 15 days, imparting texture and complexity. The wine was blended and then gently transferred to 400-litre French oak casks, where it was aged for 12 months.
A deep ruby red full of vibrant red fruits and complex aromas reminiscent of plum and red cherry, layered with a touch of liquorice, this wine is beautifully balanced and smooth, with a lovely full texture and a persistent finish.

| Winery | Rosso Piceno is the largest DOC of the Marche region in Central Italy. The area is made up of hilly terrain, ideally suited to viticulture. The grapes come from a vineyard 250 to 300 metres above sea level. The soils are based on clay, which, combined with the sloping topography, is crucial for draining excess soil moisture. A Mediterranean climate is found throughout DOC Rosso Piceno, with an average annual rainfall of 800 millimetres, mainly falling during winter. This builds soil water reserves to nourish the vines throughout the typically hot and dry summers. The vineyards are cultivated following organic principles; herbicides and pesticides are not used. The grapes are manually harvested when they have reached optimal ripeness. |
