Description: Intense ruby in colour, tending to garnet. Dry medium bodied elegant red. Cherry and candied raspberry on the nose, followed by accents of cocoa, nutmeg and plum. The palate supple yet restrained, fruit following into the mouth and long finish. A wine that pairs well with poultry and red meat dishes as well as with an array of starters.

About the Producer: Fiammetta is the first name of the Founder and Matriarch of Podere Marella winery, Fiammetta Inga. One of Italy’s first known female winemakers and one of Italy’s longest standing organic wineries. Fiammetta means ‘little flame or little fiery one’ and apparently the name suited. The two Fiammetta wines Vermentino and Rosso are the creations of her son Cosimo Bisiach and their longtime friend and consultant winemaker, the famed Jean Natoli, created in dedication to Fiammetta. One of Fiammetta’s last legible signatures graces the labels of these two superbly crafted wines.
