Tasting Notes: A well-balanced red wine blend comprising 50% Sangiovese, 30% Merlot, and 20% Cabernet Franc, each fermented separately before blending. The wine aged on lees in stainless steel tanks for three months, showcasing a brambly character, herbal undertones with a smooth texture, highlighting the terroir influence of calcareous and clay-sand soils.
Estate History: Situated in Pesaro, just 10 kilometers away from Le Marche's Adriatic coast, Selvagrossa is a modest estate spanning five hectares of vineyards. In 2002, brothers Alberto and Alessandro Taddei inherited the estate from their grandparents, beginning their journey.
Sangiovese thrives alongside carefully chosen international grape varieties, benefiting from the region's terroir to craft exceptional wines with character. Their oldest-vine Sangiovese vineyard was planted in the early 70s by their father and grandfather. Over the years, they expanded their vineyards with more Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, taking advantage of the unique conditions of the Adriatic terroir characterized by cool summer nights and clay-rich soil.
Alberto's experience at Enoteca Pinchiorri in Florence and later as a wine buyer in New York, combined with Alessandro's culinary expertise, provided them with a diverse perspective on the wine industry. Although not certified organic, they practice organic methods, cultivating cover crops and using organic treatments in the vineyards. Their wines undergo spontaneous fermentation with minimal SO2 added at bottling for stabilization.
