Wine Description:
Talley Vineyard, situated in the Arroyo Grande Valley, has gained international recognition for its outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The vineyard comprises 14 distinct subsections of vines, among which is Rosemary's Vineyard. Positioned on a hillside around Rosemary Talley's residence, approximately one mile west of the Rincon Vineyard, this site is characterized by white, rocky fractured sandstone and loam, with some clay in the subsoil. Similar to the Rincon Vineyard, Rosemary's Vineyard is steep, well-drained, and benefits from its proximity to the ocean, making it slightly cooler. The average yields are less than three tons per acre. Talley Vineyards' farming decisions are guided by two core principles: high quality and long-term sustainability. Brian Talley and Vineyard Manager Travis Monk consistently work towards enhancing fruit quality, ensuring that their practices align with the natural conditions of each vineyard site. The vineyards employ biologically based farming techniques and integrated pest management practices. Additionally, cover crops are maintained in all vineyard blocks to improve soil conditions, prevent erosion, and enhance fertility.

Wine Expert Note:

Crafted from the Piedirosso grape, this wine exudes freshness and remarkable depth, striking a perfect balance between easy-drinking appeal and lively character. Piedirosso stands out as one of the rare red wine grape varieties cultivated in Campania, with limited cultivation globally. I Pentri cultivates this grape on mature hillside vines, abstaining from the use of fertilizers or chemicals. The fermentation process employs indigenous yeasts, followed by aging in both barrel and bottle. This wine is presented unfined and unfiltered, showcasing its authentic nature.

Giuseppe Apicella Tramonti Rosso is an unusual blend of Tintore of Tramonti, Aglianico and Piedirosso produced in the Costa d'Amalfi, Campania. Vineyards are planted at high elevation on loamy soils. The grapes undergo a manual harvest with sorting in the vineyard, followed by de-stemming and crushing. The resulting juice and skins are transferred to temperature-controlled fermenters. It is then left for about 4 months in stainless steel tanks on the fine lees, followed by a further period of around 2 years in Slavonian oak barrels.
