Pietramora

Romagna DOC Sangiovese Riserva Marzeno

Pietramora, bottled only in the best vintages, expresses the finest Sangiovese of our vineyards, now all trained under the alberello system with high density vines. Among the red wines, Pietramora is the one we value most and that more than any other reflects—as we want it to—the character of the vintage: austere tannins in 1995 and 1998, opulent alcohol in 2000, buoyantly full-bodied in 2001 and 2011, exuberantly fruity in 2012, enormously classic in 2015.

A touch of Ancellotta, never more than 3%, completes the final blend almost every year.

Starting with the 2011 vintage, labels carry the name of the sub-zone Marzeno to which it officially belongs.

Ruby red
Small red berries and fruits associated with a spicy, earthy aspect, peat, and a note of boisé
