Descrizione

A rosé of bright, immediate freshness, Vipra shows a lively, luminous blush-pink color that invites a sip. On the nose a fragrant profile of small red fruits and citrus notes rather than florals emerges, always well integrated into a savory framework; the palate is slender, supported by lively acidity that shapes the mouth without weighing it down. The structure is clean and linear, with medium body and a pleasant final trail that maintains freshness and drinkability. It’s immediately enjoyable but also sustained by a slight persistence that invites a second glass.

Perfect for hot days or as table company, it pairs naturally with simple fish dishes, flavorful salads and light cured meats; it also stands up well to pasta with fresh tomato-based sauces. Serve chilled, without overdoing it: the right temperature enhances the aromatic precision and immediate drinkability. This is a rosé to be enjoyed young, designed for those seeking finesse and agility in the glass. Also excellent as an aperitif during an informal lunch or a light dinner with friends.

Winery history

The winery has been rooted in the Orvieto area since the late 19th century; official sources record the founding of Casa Vinicola Luigi Bigi in 1880. Originally based in the former Franciscan monastery "La Trinità," production was moved to more modern facilities in Ponte Giulio during the 20th century. Over time the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini and consolidated production of Orvieto’s characteristic white wines alongside a range of regional reds.

Production philosophy
