De Fermo Concrete Vino Rosso

A red wine from De Fermo in Abruzzo, made from biodynamically farmed grapes. It goes through five days of whole-bunch fermentation, then is made and aged in cement. The wine is agile yet has some fibre, with an interesting development on the palate and a pleasant minerality. The nose offers cherry and mulberry with peony, violet and a mineral edge. The palate is enveloping, with velvety tannins and a simple, balanced character. It suits structured first courses, red meats and aged cheeses.
