Ancora Rosato Monferrato Chiaretto

Established in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Castelvero, the leading co-operative in the Monferrato hills of Piemonte. Our aim is to produce authentic, well-priced still and sparkling wines from local grape varieties.

All aspects of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica's winemaking team of Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese - assisted by Boutinot's Tony Brown MW. We source from a range of private growers and cooperatives, with whom we have long term relationships, principally in Veneto, Friuli, Lombardy, Sicily, Puglia, Abruzzo and Sardinia.

Vineyards

From Barbera and some Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Monferrato hills in Piemonte.

Vinification

Short pre-fermentation maceration on skins at a low temperature followed by gentle pressing. Fermented in stainless steel at low temperatures with cultured yeasts.

Tasting Notes

Bright aromas of fresh strawberry and redcurrants. The palate has ripe berry and cherry characters balanced by juicy acidity to give a fresh and appealing finish.

Serve chilled with roasted Mediterranean vegetables, white meats and tomato based pasta dishes.
