Bellamarsilia is a vibrant, fruity and engaging red from Maremma in the province of Grosseto.
Our Opinion Geographically, Maremma can be divided into three parts: Maremma Laziale in the far south, bordering the region of Lazio; Maremma Grossetana, land within the province of Grosseto; and Maremma Alta, from the area around Follonica north to Bolgheri and beyond. But on the wine map, "Maremma" can be taken to mean the central part, in the province of Grosseto. Historically Maremma has a chequered reputation, and just 60 years ago was regarded as a zone almost unfit to live in. An old ditty says, "Chi va a Maremma lascia l'acqua fresca e non sa quello che trova": "He who goes to Maremma leaves fresh water behind and has no idea what he'll find there."
Tasting Notes This wine has an attractive savoury nose of dried fruits and herbs, pepper, sour cherry and almond. Delicious acidity. Drink young.
Wine Maker
Method of Production Vineyard: New vineyards planted at 6000 vines per hectare (high density) situated about 6km from the Maremma coast Winery: The Bellamarsilia undergoes a maceration lasting approximately 14 days, with temperature-controlled fermentation then matures for around six months: one third in stainless steel, one third in large, 3-ton old oak vats, the final third in small barrels of new American oak.
