Produced and bottled by La Fortezza – Torrecuso (Benevento), Italy
Produced in Italy
The vineyards from which the grapes used to make this interesting red wine originate are located in Torrecuso, in the province of Benevento. This is an area of the choice for many great warm-hearted wines. Wines produced with grapes ripened under the Campania sun, with a climate more than mild and many hours of sunshine every day, for several months a year. In the country, the techniques are strict. Harvest by hand, selection of the best bunches. Then the grapes are delivered to the winery to be processed as soon as possible. Pressing and destemming, then prolonged maceration to extract the best color and tannins. After vinification, a slow aging process allows the wine to reach the right level of pleasantness. The result is an intense and concentrated red. In the glass it has a beautiful ruby color, with aromas reminiscent of wild berries. A nice wine that on the palate is soft and pleasant, warm and with clear hints of black cherry jam.
Never as in this case, the link with the land is so tangible. It is that particular relationship that binds entrepreneur Enzo Rillo with his land, the Sannio. It is here, in fact, that he chose to give life to his farm, La Fortezza, in the heart of Taburno. Founded with the goal of enhancing the good things of its land, since the beginning it focused on typical wines, such as Aglianico del Taburno DOCG, Falanghina del Sannio, Greco, Fiano and Piedirosso. Aglianico, in particular, proves to be an extremely versatile grape and is also used to produce a pure rosé. The latest foray, in chronological order, is into the world of bubbles. Today, in fact, La Fortezza flanks its traditional line of wines with an interesting range of sparkling wines, Charmat and classic method, based on Falanghina. And with that, it really does come full circle.
