100% Syrah from Cortona, from the sandiest part of the vineyard that also makes his Apice, but harvested earlier with this rosato in mind. Direct press, fermented and aged in concrete vats with no sulfur until bottling. Juicy mineral-laced cherries with sneaky concentration. Certified Biodynamic.

80% Carignano, 20% Alicante Nero (aka Grenache).  This is the 1st Rosato from Ampeleia!  The Carignano was direct-pressed and then whole clusters of the Alicante Nero were added to the tank, macerating there for 12 days and coloring the wine. All concrete. Low alcohol, salty, with a hint of welcome...
