WINE DESCRIPTION
De Fermo Le Cince Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo is a distinctive rosé crafted from 100% Montepulciano grapes, embodying the traditional dark-colored Cerasuolo style unique to Abruzzo. The wine hails from the De Fermo winery, guided by the expertise of Nicoletta De Fermo and Stefano Papetti. Nestled in Loreto Aprutino, Abruzzo, their 17-hectare vineyards, situated at 320 meters above sea level, flourish in mineral-rich soils. Embracing biodynamic farming principles, primarily focusing on Montepulciano and Pecorino grapes, with a touch of Chardonnay, the winery seeks to amplify the terroir's potential. Vinified in an early 19th-century cellar, the wines undergo fermentation and aging in large wooden barrels and concrete vats, with an intentional lack of temperature control, selected yeasts, or enzymes. Unfiltered and unfined, De Fermo's wines represent a holistic approach, intertwining farming, spirituality, and meticulous winemaking practices.
