La Versa Buttafuoco 2019

La Versa Buttafuoco is a robust red wine from the Oltrepò Pavese region in northern Italy, known for its diverse microclimates and calcareous clay soils. This wine is crafted from a blend of indigenous grape varieties, including Barbera, Croatina, and Uva Rara, which are hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness. The fermentation process occurs in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit character, followed by aging in oak barrels to add structure and complexity. The result is a full-bodied wine with balanced acidity, offering rich fruit flavors and a smooth finish, ideal for pairing with hearty dishes.
