"This deep rosé is perfect for any time of year . . . . I love its complex wild strawberry and fresh-turned earth aromas. On the palate notes of wet rocks, ripe berries, fresh-cut herbs and rose petals are abundante. This is a full-bodied and serious rosé that is ageworthy . . . . Varietals - 100% Montepulciano; Elevage - Fermented and aged in concrete tanks. Aged for 10 months; Alcohol - 13.5%; Wine Making - This wine is made from biodynamically farmed grapes harvested by hand on September 10th. The only additives in the vineyard are copper and sulphur and a minimal amount of sulphur at bottling. The grapes are fermented with indigenous yeast and without external temperature control. The wine spends 3 hours on the skin and is lightly pressed in a restored antique basket press then transferred to concrete tanks. The soil is a calcium-rich clay with medium-sized rocks and stones."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
