'Sator' Tintilia del Molise Cianfagna 2016

Sator Tintilia del Molise DOC is an elegant red wine produced by the Cianfagna winery which is obtained from the exclusive vinification of Tintilia grapes. This autochthonous vine, of very ancient origins, is little known beyond the borders of Molise and in recent decades it was considered at risk of extinction. In more recent years, however, it has been rediscovered also thanks to the commitment of this winery, which strives to limit human intervention among the rows and thus create favorable conditions for the growth of the vine. After the manual harvest, the grapes ferment spontaneously inside steel tanks. The refinement always takes place in steel and can last for a period of up to 24 months. Before being put on the market, the wine rests another 3 months in glass after bottling. Sator Tintilia del Molise DOC is an excellent red to be enjoyed immediately, even if it boasts considerable potential for further refinement for a few years.
