Fontefico's Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Superiore 'Fossimatto' is a rosé wine made exclusively from Montepulciano grapes. In the cellar, a brief maceration on the skins gives it its characteristic colour. In Fontefico's version, fermentation takes place in steel to preserve the purity of the aroma. The short period of ageing on the lees amplifies the roundness and softness of the wine. The nose reveals hints of crisp fruit, with a slight bitter note of blood orange peel. The palate is full-bodied, with delicate tannins and a pleasant salty note, derived from the proximity to the sea. Perfect with a sauce of musky octopus
