100% Montepulciano planted on exposed limestone soils. The grapes are harvested by hand in mid-September and fully de-stemmed before fermentation. Only free run juice is used, leading to a supremely pure and delicate final wine. Rests in stainless steel for one year prior to bottling and release.
Luscious and expressive: wild strawberry, watermelon and brambly red berries leap out of the glass followed by crushed violets and saline minerality. On the palate, more juicy red berry fruit is backed by tart, rhubarb acidity, pretty floral notes and a touch of pink peppercorn spice. Finishes crisp, clean and slightly salty. We wish all rosé could taste this good.
