Unlitro di Ampeleia

Ampeleia

Inspired by the vitality of their youngest vines in the Ampeleia di Mezzo site, Unlitro was created to showcase the youthful freshness of the site. Bright briar berry, black raspberry, hints of Mediterranean herbs, a slight bush aroma, and grainy red earth/juicy palate as well. With a modest alcohol level, and bright structure, this wine is as at home with light foods and snacks as it is just chilled, sitting in a tumbler, imagining a Tuscan sunset. A peasant wine in the best sense; infinitely fun and delicious.
