“Nasciolo”, Annesanti – Rosato Umbria Igt 2022

Description : Barbera is strangely widespread in many areas of Umbria even if the historical reasons seem controversial. Nasciolo has an intense pink color that fully anticipates the floral sensation and pleasant – we could say full, pulpy – freshness.

Annesanti, Arrone (Tr)

In just over 6 and a half hectares in the Nera river valley that a little further on will welcome the Velino river in the amazing Marmore Falls, in an unexplored territory for regional viticulture, the young Francesco, a graduate in natural sciences, wants to express a traditional agriculture where human intervention must be limited to protection (from spring frosts given where we are, from the passage of wild animals) and enhancement. The traditional vines of the area are all there, just as his grandfather left them to him: Grechetto, Trebbiano, Malvasia, Sangiovese and Barbera brought back from natives who left to seek better fortune with the Savoy. Francesco combines sensitivity towards the natural and attention to the proposition of wines that are not extreme even with some concessions here and there towards more out of the ordinary productions.
