A blend (technically a co-ferment) of certified organic Uva Rara (30%), Barbera (30%), Croatina (10%), Pinot Nero (10%), Riesling (15%). Grapes are fermented together with 8 days on the skins and pumping over twice a day. Also done in stainless and concrete vessels.
--------------------------------------------------
Grape blend similar to Sangue di Giuda! Smells extremely tropical, with lychee, acai, mango; just a fun wine. Not too funky, right amount of acidity and body, and great with a bit of a chill.
A very light red! Chill slightly and drink on your porch.
