Montesantoccio 'ROSSO FERDINANDO' Chilled Verona Red 2024

Organic Chilled Red

Corvina & a touch of Rondinella (short 7 day maceration, aged in stainless)

Santoccio, Fumane, Verona, ITALY

If red wine wore linen, this would be it. Rosso Ferdinando is a bright, crunchy & juicy blend of Corvina and Rondinella from the hills of Verona, built for chilling and easy drinking. Drunk by the grape pickers on a break during the sunny afternoons of harvest.

Seven days on skins gives just enough colour and grip. Then it's aged in stainless to keep things snappy. Think sour cherry, raspberry, blood orange and a flicker of dried herbs. Light-bodied, fruit-driven and dangerously drinkable.

This is your pizza wine, park wine, pasta-in-a-bowl wine. It doesn’t ask much, but it gives plenty.

Made organically by Nicola Ferrari at Montesantoccio (who did a 10 year apprenticeship at top Verona winery Quinteralli), it’s proof that not all reds need to be serious to be seriously good. Serve it cold, maybe with a slight chill on your glass too. You’ll see what we mean.
