Description
A still organic red from the heart of the Marche region, 15% ABV, produced by Fontezoppa. A wine that embodies the essence of the Serrapetrona terroir, made with Vernaccia Nera grapes. 2019 vintage, 0.75L bottle. Aged for 18 months in barrique and 12 months in bottle. On the nose, it is richly extractive, with sweet spices combined with black cherry in alcohol, plum jam, and a pleasant woody note. Intense ruby red color. On the palate, it is consistent, with jam and sweet spices combined with a dense tannic structure that, along with the alcoholic backbone, sustains the entire progression.

It is precisely from the land that the story of Cantine Fontezoppa begins. A variety of vines handed over to expert hands and ancient techniques meet the soil's generosity and the air's goodness here. The result is a wine with a strong personality, produced among green hills that look now to the sea and the mountains.
In the towns of Civitanova Alta and Serrapetrona, the right balance of climatic conditions and soil richness has been found, so it is in the space between the Adriatic Sea and the Monti Azzurri that Cantine Fontezoppa cultivates and ages its best wines. Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet, Lacrima, but also Maceratino, Incrocio Bruni and Pecorino are the vines planted around Civitanova Alta under the beneficial influence of the sea.
On the slopes of Monti Azzurri, on the other hand, there are Vernaccia Nera, Pinot Nero and Sangiovese vines. Serrapetrona has always been the land of Vernaccia, a grape variety of ancient spiciness capable of attracting the attention of the national wine scene and today at the centre of rediscovery and experimentation. The secret of good wine is hidden in the association with the land, an alliance between terroir and tradition that the Marche region cannot do without. Read more
