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.
