The name Ferentano derives from the archaeological site of Ferento: the ancient Etruscan city, located near the vineyards where the Roscetto grapes used to produce this wine are grown.
THE VINEYARD:
This label represents the path that the Cotarella family has undertaken towards the valorization of an ancient native vine of the Montefiascone area, the Rossetto, a grape with a small and compact bunch which, contained in the production, if well cultivated and vinified, thanks to the good sugar-acidity ratio and the particular aromatic vein, is able to offer a wine with great body and extract.
VINIFICATION AND REFINING:
The selected grapes, once they arrive in the cellar, are subjected to a cryomaceration treatment, through which the varietal characteristics of Rossetto are enhanced. The first part of the alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel vats at a temperature of 13-15°c. The second part of the alcoholic fermentation and the malolactic one takes place in barriques where the wine continues its evolution.
THE WINE:
Straw yellow color with light golden reflections. The nose is dominated by sensations of yellow flowers and honey, then butter and light vanilla. The taste is rich, but its typical acidity makes it particularly drinkable and pleasant.
