Rosso
Denominazione di Origine Controllata
The Rome DOC blend, seeks to restore the identity of the wine that-from the same soft hillsides exposed to the sun and traversed by gentle breezes described in Roman oenology texts-has been produced in this area for millennia.
Grape varietals
Blend of red grapes from central Italy according to the specifications of the Rome DOC.
Soil
Calcareous-clayey
Vinification
Fermentation on the skins for 10-12 days at a temperature of 20°-23°C, post-fermentation maceration for 7-10 days at 28-30°C. Spontaneous or induced malolactic fermentation after racking.
Refinement
In steel tanks until malolactic fermentation is completed, then the wine ages for 3 months in cement tanks until bottling, then continues its aging in bottle for about 3 months.
Tasting
Ruby red colour with brilliant reflections. The nose has sweet hints of red fruit, ripe sour cherries, warm and enveloping notes in perfect balance with the taste sensations, which are fruity and elegant, without smudges, without excesses. A wine of great harmony and pleasantness.
Pairings
Eclectic in its combination possibilities, it goes well with appetizers of cold cuts and cheeses and traditional Roman dishes, both first courses with white or red sauces and second courses of meat, as well as ricotta and sheep’s milk cheese.
