ROSSO PICENO SUPERIORE CURIOSITY

Despite the Rosso Piceno Superiore is part of the specification of the Rosso Piceno, they are two different wines for both features that geographic area.

The geographic territory in which it produces the Rosso Piceno Superiore, is very small: the area is located between Ascoli Piceno and San Benedetto del Tronto. In total, including 33 municipalities in the production area. They are sweet hills since 1977 have been covered by a "road of Rosso Piceno Superiore", which starts from Offida, through Acquaviva Piceno and reaches San Benedetto.

The ritual of the table, here, have been cultivated with loving care, as demonstrated by the existence of two Academies, the "Picena kitchen" and the "Vino de la Marca". The Rosso Piceno Superiore is part of the specification of Rosso Piceno. It must be said though that these are two very different wines, both features that geographic area. The knowledge of the Rosso Piceno Superiore is not equal to its delicacy. This wine shares its fame with the main dish of the area: mixed fried Ascoli, an authentic specialties in which tower the stuffed olives.

It is considered a wine "throughout the meal," which goes well with both meat sauces that with robust grilled meats, the boiled meat and wild game. The reason is: the "Superior" is the large presence of Sangiovese, accompanied by Montepulciano and Trebbiano and Passerina. A particular wine: color, which already invites the eye to a gratifying contemplation: an unmistakable ruby red. In flavor, balanced, dry, savory. In the robust strength, 12 degrees, and finally in aging (the optimal age of two to five years).
