Alla Goccia "Bottoms Up" Red
Varietal: Red Blend
Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: California
Medium Red Wines
60% Sangiovese, 20% Montepulciano, 15% Primitivo, 3% Bianchetta, and 2% Aglianico from the Santo Giordano Vineyard in Carneros, planted along the edge of San Pablo Bay, are co-fermented as a field blend, with the white grapes contributing brightness and lift to this Chianti-inspired red. All varietals are harvested together, gently foot-tread, and fermented on skins until dry using only native vineyard yeasts and indigenous malolactic bacteria. The wine is aged for 12 months on full lees in neutral fiberglass, without oak influence or additives, then bottled unfined and unfiltered with a minimal addition of 20 ppm sulfur prior to bottling to preserve freshness and stability.
Staff Review:
Alla Goccia basically means "Bottoms Up!" in Italian. Sourced from organic Sonoma County vineyards, it's a lively bold blend. Endlessly drinkable and tailor made for casual pizza/pasta! *Serve chilled*
