This year on the label of our Cerasuolo you will find the indication "Rosato". The outcome of the hot 2021 season gave it a heavier color than the canons of the disciplinary, so we chose not to present it to the Committee for the assignment of the Doc, preferring to leave the warmth and light of the vintage in the wine, rather than intervene to comply with the criteria imposed by the disciplinary.
The Rosato Igt 2021 is made from 100% Montepulciano d'Abruzo grapes vinified in white, in fact the fermentation takes place without skins in small vitrified cement tanks. The wine was produced in a smaller quantity than usual. Its alcohol content is generous, while the acidity is slightly lower than usual.
The 2021 vintage has given intense and persistent aromas to which corresponds a full and structured flavor. Our impression, supported also by experience, is that it is a Rosato with a remarkable aging potential, so we invite you to refine a part of your assignment, time will give you great satisfaction.
Claret pink in color, the nose is intense and rich with fruity hints of strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate over a quiet, elegant floral accent of geranium. On the palate it is slightly tannic, with good acid-flavor support and pleasant returns of wild strawberries and raspberries. is a very versatile rosé in pairing with food, from a traditional dish of gnocchi alla sorrentina to grilled tuna.
