More questions
The Rosso IGT Fosso Vechio from I Calanchi shows a vivid ruby colour. On the nose it offers a fragrant profile of ripe red and dark fruit, accompanied by light floral notes, spicy hints and a subtle earthy touch. On the palate it displays an immediate balance between freshness and structure: medium body, compact but non‑aggressive tannins and an easy drinkability. The finish is pleasant, with fruity echoes and a slightly saline note that lengthens the finish.
It is an IGT wine designed to accompany everyday meals and convivial dinners: pairs well with cold cuts, grilled meats, light game and medium‑aged cheeses, and also stands up to heartier pairings like pizza. Gentle aeration before serving is recommended to reveal its aromas; serving temperature around 16–18 °C. The offering from the I Calanchi cellar emphasizes fruit recognition and drinkability, making this Rosso a versatile choice both for those seeking immediacy and for those preferring gastronomic pairings.

The winery

Emilia-RomagnaItaly
Wine cooperative (Agrintesa) based in Faenza with production cellar in Modigliana (Emilia-Romagna). Produces the 'I Calanchi' line, which includes the Sangiovese di Romagna Superiore Riserva 'Zanarina'.
The story
Formed from the aggregation of several cooperatives beginning in 1999; the 'Progetto Qualità' led to the creation of bottled lines (including 'I Calanchi') and the concentration of vinifications at the Modigliana cellar.
Production philosophy
To valorize hillside grapes of the Faenza area through shared agronomic protocols with members, vineyard selection, centralized quality controls and targeted aging (the 'I Calanchi' line is aged in wood).
Terroir and vineyards
The Faenza hills and the Romagna winegrowing area (Modigliana, Brisighella and the hills of Ravenna/Forlì-Cesena provinces), suitable for Sangiovese and Albana.
