Tasting Notes: Lintero Rosso is specifically designed to highlight winemaking techniques such as whole bunch fermentation and a 10-day skin contact period. Despite this fermentation method, it's important to note the wine is not carbonated and the container's CO2 saturation is kept minimal. It falls under the Colline Lucchese DOC appellation and is made from Vermentino Nero, Sangiovese, and Syrah grapes. The grapes are cultivated using biodynamic methods and fermentation occurs in steel tanks followed by maturation in oak barrels. The unfiltered wine expresses notes of black cherry, cranberries, balsamic, and hints of earth. Overall, it is lighter in style and preferably served with a chill.
Estate History: Terra di Confine commenced its journey in 2020 under the guidance of Giulia Marangon, a highly skilled and significantly experienced oenologist and vintner, and her partner Rachele Baldini. The name Terra di Confine translates to borderlands, symbolizing the convergence of the shared visions of its founders and honoring their respective origins in Liguria and Tuscany.
Giulia and Rachele oversee two vineyards located in the hilly province of Massa Carrara. Spanning 40 to 80 years old, these vineyards are situated between the striking scenery of the visible Apuan Alps and the Tyrrhenian Sea and cultivated in accordance with traditional methods. Common varieties include Vermentino, Albarola, Moscato Giallo, pink Trebbiano, Malvasia, Vermentino Nero, Syrah, Sangiovese, Bonamico, and Barbarossa.
