Produced from indigenous grapes, Castel del Monte DOP Rosso by CRIFO is a tribute to the Nero di Troia vine, in this case flanked by 30% of 'other black grapes' typical of the area. The Castel del Monte denomination is synonymous with quality and wine tradition, thanks also to a particularly favourable terroir. It originates on the first hilly slopes of the Murgia, north-east of Ruvo di Puglia, about 400 metres above sea level. This area is characterised by marly, slightly clayey soil, enriched with sand of karstic origin, which contributes to giving the wines a special structure and complexity. The hilly exposure, combined with the breeze coming from the Adriatic, creates an ideal microclimate for the ripening of the grapes, favouring the development of intense aromas and a distinctive freshness. The vineyards, cultivated using the traditional Apulian pergola system, benefit from good sun exposure, allowing the grapes to reach optimal ripeness while maintaining a balanced freshness and acidity. As soon as the grapes are harvested, they are immediately transported to the cellar where the best bunches are carefully selected and then destemmed. Pre-fermentation maceration then takes place at a controlled temperature for 24/48 hours, followed by fermentation in steel. This step allows the aromas to be extracted from the skins in the best possible way, keeping the aromas and colour lively. The wine then continues with malolactic fermentation, which gives it softness and roundness. After a short bottle ageing, the wine is ready to be enjoyed, revealing a young and lively character. A lively ruby colour, enriched with violet hues, the nose reveals intense aromas of blackberries and plums, with a hint of violets emerging delicately in the background. In the mouth, the taste is full-bodied, dominated by ripe, well-integrated tannins. The finish is pleasantly fruity, with returns of ripe fruit that enhance its persistence and complexity. An ideal companion for typical Apulian dishes, it goes well with classic orecchiette al sugo, stuffed aubergines and roast lamb with potatoes. It is also excellent with semi-mature cheeses.
