Varvaglione 12 e mezzo Rosato del Salento

The 12 e Mezzo Rosato from Varvaglione comes from the heart of Apulia and is made from 100% Negroamaro grapes. This elegant rosé impresses with its freshness, fine fruit and Mediterranean lightness.

After a short cold maceration, the grapes are fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Ageing on the fine lees gives the wine additional volume and expression. It is a delicate salmon pink in the glass. Notes of strawberries, raspberries, peaches and flowers on the nose. Fresh, round and harmonious on the palate, with animating fruit acidity and fine minerality.

The 12 e Mezzo Rosato from Varvaglione is ideal with grilled fish, seafood, pasta or salads - but also perfect as an aperitif.

Varvaglione Vigne & Vini

Die Familie Varvaglione arbeitet seit 1921 in der Weinbranche. Firmengründer war der Großvater des heutigen Inhabers, des Önologen Cosimo Varvaglione, der das Unternehmen zu internationalem Erfolg führte. Und auch die vierte Generation ist schon im Unternehmen tätig. Tradition, Erfahrung und modernste Kellertechnik, sowie die Liebe zum Wein bilden erklärtermaßen die Grundlage ihrer Weinherstellung. Das Unternehmen hat seinen Sitz in Leporano im Salento, der Halbinsel im Süden Apuliens, dem „Stiefelabsatz“ Italiens.

Cosimo Varvaglione legt den Schwerpunkt auf die traditionellen, apulischen Rebsorten Primitivo und Negroamaro, Malvasia, Aglianico und Verdeca, sowie Chardonnay als internationale Sorte. Varvaglione kultiviert diese Rebsorten auf 135 ha Rebfläche und arbeitet zusätzlich mit zahlreichen Winzern der Region zusammen. Der Önologe glaubt, dass die beiden wichtigsten Rebsorten Apuliens, Primitivo und Negroamaro, das Zeug zur internationalen Spitzenklasse haben. Die Auszeichnung mit drei Gläsern des Gambero Rosso bestätigte seine Einschätzung.

Bekannt wurden die Weine der Familie Varvaglione durch den Primitivo 12 e Mezzo Der Name bezieht sich übrigens auf den Alkoholgehalt von nur 12,5 Vol.%. Mit dem renommierten Papale Wein feierte man im Jahr 2011 den 90. Geburtstag des Unternehmens. Der „päpstliche“ Wein wurde benannt nach dem Weinberg, aus dem die Trauben stammen. Dieser war früher im Besitz der Familie des Papstes Benedikt XIII.
