Rosé

The Cerasuolo Anfora Rosé comes from 100% Montepulciano grapes from Cirelli´s estate-owned vineyards in the province of Teramo, Abruzzo, where the grapes are harvested strictly by hand. After destemming, alcoholic fermentation starts in the amphora with a previously prepared 'pied de cuve' of indigenous yeasts. The maceration on the skins has a concise duration of only six hours, while refinement also takes place in amphora and lasts for about 12 months. This rosè is very exciting, offering notes of sour cherry, pomegranate and earthy tones. It is juicy with a slightly weighty mid-palate, intense flavours of cherry, pomegranate and blood orange, and a lovely crunchiness that lasts all the way. An easygoing wine but with depth to combine with a wide range of uncomplicated dishes.
