2022 Ampeleia 'Rosato di Ampeleia' Rosato Toscana

Winemaker Notes:  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 tannin. Certified biodynamic. 5,000 bottles made.

"Ampeleia is one of the stars of the Tuscan coast.....At their best, the Ampeleia wines are among the most pure, transparent expressions of the coast readers will find. Elisabetta Foradori and her team are doing important work here. Ampeleia is a young estate. There is every reason to believe the best is yet to come"
