Santa Barbara - Barbara, Marche
Rosso Pignocco cru d'annata, I.G.T.
This is a cru vineyard site, which gets the name Pignocco from a tree known in local folklore. A distinctive blend of Moscato Rosso, Lacrima, Cabernet and Montepulciano grapes. This red blend, like its white sister of Verdicchio comes from the locally famous Pignocco cru area, outside of Santa Barbara. The wine has been aged in the finest of oak throughout the winter to heighten and enrich its natural bouquet with a nicely balanced aroma of wood. It has a ruby red color and is a delight with a variety of foods.
