Aglianico "Titolo Pink Edition" Elena Fucci

The Pink Edition 'Titolo' is the rosé expression of the 'Titolo' line, a wine capable of combining liveliness and depth, revealing the most delicate and versatile side of this noble vine, Aglianico. In fact, Elena Fucci decided to create this label by vinifying red Aglianico in rosé, bringing to the glass all the fruit that this variety is capable of transmitting, balancing the aroma with all the minerality and freshness combined with the savouriness that the terroir is capable of transmitting. 
The vineyards selected for its production are located at the foot of Monte Vulture, in the northernmost part of Basilicata, not far from the border with the neighbouring region of Puglia, an area with a climate and soil composition that have proved to be extremely favourable to vine growing. Preference is given to grapes from the youngest and most vigorous vines, aged between 6 and 10 years, and the harvest is slightly earlier. Harvested by hand in small baskets, the grapes are cooled in the cellar, destemmed and left to ferment in steel vats with almost whole grapes, with cryomaceration (cold maceration) for about 4 days. This is followed by a soft, short-cycle pressing and aging in steel vats for about two and a half months, followed by filtration and a further two months resting in the bottle.
The result is a wine with an intense, bright pink colour. To the nose, it offers elegant aromas of sparkling fruit, with lively notes of citrus, sweet hints of fresh strawberries and delicate hints of white flowers. 
On the palate, it has a pronounced minerality at the start, followed by a lively spiciness and balance that make it perfect as an aperitif or with light dishes such as vegetable couscous or salads, steamed or tempura-cooked fish.
The Pink Edition is a rosé with character, with all the personality of the Vulture in a refined and modern guise.
