The Piedirosso Campi Flegrei DOP produced by Cantine Farro is a wine that encapsulates the essence and intensity of the historic volcanic region from which it originates. This wine is made solely from Piedirosso grapes, one of the most representative native grape varieties of Campania, known for its ability to convey a deep connection to its place of origin.

With its ruby red color and slight violet reflections, Piedirosso Campi Flegrei DOP reveals a rich bouquet of aromas on the nose: notes of cherry, red berries, and a light spiciness reminiscent of black pepper stand out. In the background, delicate hints of Mediterranean herbs emerge, testament to the volcanic and maritime landscape that influences the vine growth.

On the palate, this wine presents a balanced and harmonious structure. The acidity is well integrated with soft tannins, creating a velvety sensation that envelops the palate. The aftertaste persists elegantly, leaving a pleasant sensation of fresh fruit and a slight minerality that recalls sun-warmed lava stones.

Ideal as an accompaniment to Mediterranean cuisine, Piedirosso Campi Flegrei DOP pairs perfectly with appetizers featuring cured meats and cheeses, red meat dishes and game, as well as with pizzas and traditional Campanian dishes.

Cantine Farro, with their profound dedication to viticulture and quality, meticulously oversee every stage of production, from the manual harvesting of the grapes to vinification with techniques that combine tradition and innovation, ensuring a product that is a true tribute to its refined terroir.
