Maison Anselmet's Fumin is a distinctive example of the winemaking heritage of the Aosta Valley, a mountainous region located in north-west Italy. This red wine is produced entirely from the native Fumin grape variety, known for its ability to uniquely express the characteristics of the Alpine terroir. Maison Anselmet, one of the most prestigious and respected wineries in the Aosta Valley, is committed to producing wines that reflect the authenticity and complexity of the local wine-growing landscape.

Maison Anselmet's Fumin is the result of careful and meticulous viticulture, practiced in small terraced vineyards located on the steep mountain slopes, where the particular climatic conditions and mineral-rich soil help to define the aromatic intensity and structure of the wine. The winery follows sustainable practices, aiming to preserve the environment and enhance the natural qualities of the grape variety.

Winemaking is carefully managed to ensure that the distinctive character of Fumin is fully expressed. The wine is typically fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the purity of the fruit, followed by a period of maturation in oak barriques which adds complexity and depth to the aromatic profile, without overpowering the varietal notes.

Visually, Fumin presents an intense ruby ​​red color, with purple nuances that reflect the youth and vitality of the wine. On the nose, it offers a complex and inviting bouquet, characterized by aromas of ripe red and black fruits, such as currants and plums, spicy accents, notes of Alpine herbs and a subtle vein of black pepper, which gives the wine a distinctive character.

In the mouth, Maison Anselmet's Fumin demonstrates a solid structure, supported by ripe and well-integrated tannins, and a balanced acidity that contributes to a surprising freshness. The rich and intense flavors faithfully reflect the aroma, culminating in a long and persistent finish, with a marked minerality that speaks directly of the Alpine terroir.

This wine pairs beautifully with rich, flavorful dishes, such as red meats, game, mushroom dishes and mature cheeses. Its ability to combine intensity and elegance also makes it suitable as a meditation wine.

With its Fumin, Maison Anselmet offers a window onto the richness and viticultural diversity of the Aosta Valley, celebrating an indigenous vine which, thanks to the passion and expertise of the cellar, manages to fully express its potential, offering a tasting experience deeply rooted in the territory.
