Montepulciano from De Fermo's biodynamic vineyards in Loreto Aprutino—a place where family records trace vines back to 1100—becomes this stunning rosato after brief maceration. The fruit is wild cherry and pomegranate; the earth speaks through moss and damp minerals. A velvety structure on the palate belies the wine's complexity: stony minerality gives way to an enveloping finish that lingers with grace. This is rosato as serious wine.

More about De Fermo

Stefano Papetti Ceroni was a successful Bologna lawyer when he stumbled upon a 1785 winery buried under his wife Eloisa's family vineyards in Abruzzo. He scrapped his legal career, took no enology training, and taught himself biodynamic farming and minimal-intervention winemaking. Now his Montepulciano and Pecorino appear on the lists of top restaurants. Self-taught mastery.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine:

De Fermo’s Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo proper (named after the local “cinciallegra” bird, known for its loud chirping) shows kinship with the Rosato “Concrete” above in its driving energy and its overall tangy jubilance, but it offers significantly greater depth and complexity as well as a more profound minerality. “Le Cince” is partly rather than fully de-stemmed, given a longer maceration of four hours, and aged in 16-hectoliter Stockinger botti rather than concrete—a regimen which broadens the wine’s texture and emphasizes its structure. Subtle notes of cocoa and fruit leather emerge amidst the swarm of fresh cherries, and the palate displays remarkable tension and length. Plenty expressive in youth, this will develop even greater complexity with cellaring.
