Tasting Note BIO Bucci Rosso Piceno Pongelli
Ruby red in color with an expressive nose of ripe cherries, plums, blackberries, and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, the wine is juicy and elegant, with soft tannins, fresh acidity, and subtle notes of spice. The finish is harmonious, refined, and invites another sip. Delicious to drink young, but will also develop beautifully over 5 to 7 years.
Food Pairing
This Bucci Rosso Piceno Pongelli is a versatile companion at the table. It pairs excellently with pasta in a rich meat sauce, grilled pork or beef, and roast chicken. Its fruity and elegant character also shines alongside antipasti, Italian cured meats, pizza, or aged cheeses. It is even surprisingly delicious served slightly chilled with an elaborate charcuterie board.
Additional Information
The BIO Bucci Rosso Piceno Pongelli is an organic red wine from the Italian region of Marche. The wine comes from the vineyards surrounding Ostra Vetere and is made from a classic blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese. The combination of these two grapes creates an elegant, fruity, and harmonious wine that is both accessible and gastronomic.
Following the manual harvest, the grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for approximately 9 to 12 months in large oak barrels. This aging process softens the tannins without overpowering the fresh fruit character.
The Bucci winery has long been among the absolute elite in Italy and is primarily known for its elegant Verdicchios, characterized by great finesse, minerality, and excellent aging potential.
Fun fact:
Rosso Piceno is the largest DOC for red wine in the Marche region. The combination of Montepulciano and Sangiovese has existed here for centuries. Montepulciano provides color and ripe fruit, while Sangiovese adds freshness, elegance, and lively acidity. It is precisely this balance that makes Rosso Piceno one of the most versatile red wines in Italy.
