Broc Cellars "Amore Rosso - Foxhill Vineyard" Mendocino County Italian Red Blend 2022

The Amore Rosso inspires conviviality and is our nod to delicious old school classic field blends. As a field blend, all of the reds were picked on the same day from Fox Hill, our estate vineyard in Mendocino. The Barbera (41%) and Dolcetto (31%) grapes were co-fermented together in stainless open top fermenters and then pressed into a mix of concrete tanks and neutral French barrique to age. The Negroamaro (25%) was made as a rosé, foot stomped and left on the skins for 24 hours, then pressed and fermented in stainless steel (+3% Nebbiolo). All of the wine aged for nine months then blended before bottling. The wine’s bright acid and slight juiciness make it great on its own with a subtle structure that is perfect for pizza and a wide range of foods. Tasting Notes: Dusting chocolate, blackberry, fresh-plucked cherry.
