The "Costacielo" Rosato from Cantina Lunarossa is a Campanian wine produced in the Salerno area, near the Monti Picentini, a terroir that has proven to be very suitable for quality viticulture in recent decades. Rosés have historically been part of the tradition of our south, and a small and innovative reality like Lunarossa offers us an interesting wine aged in amphora. The bouquet is rich and intense, with aromas that mainly recall ripe cherry and the more fragrant notes of pomegranate juice. The taste is well-structured, juicy, and crisp, with a fresh finish that leans towards savory and mineral sensations.
The Rosato "Costacielo" is born in the inland of Salerno, in the hilly area between the Picentino river and the sea. The warm Mediterranean climate is tempered by the gentle breezes of the Tyrrhenian Sea, creating ideal conditions for ripening grapes with particularly intense aromatic profiles. The Aglianico vines are cultivated in the Giffoni Val di Piana area, on alluvial soils rich in pebbles, sands, clays, and limestone.After the harvest, a soft pressing of the grapes is carried out, with brief contact with the skins. The free-run must is started on alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks. The subsequent aging takes place in amphora, where it rests for at least six months in an inert material, which does not impart any scent to the wine, but allows a minimal level of micro-oxygenation, contributing to the aromatic evolution of the rosé towards greater maturity and expressive complexity.
