Marzieno Ravenna Rosso IGP 2019 750ML - Fattoria Zerbina

Produced in the wake of the Tuscan experience of the mid 1980s, in which Sangiovese was often blended with noble foreign varieties, Marzieno over the years has built its own personality and, above all, its own credibility. So much so, that it is considered by critics to be among the few red wines of our region able to compete with the best Italian wines of its type. Starting from the 2001 vintage, while keeping a solid framework of Sangiovese, Marzieno has been blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and other varieties, such as Syrah and Merlot.

Fattoria Zerbina, led with passion by Cristina Geminiani, produces high quality wines that represent the authentic expression of the territory. Each wine is born from a deep bond with the land, from listening to the hidden language of the vines and from dedication in the process of transforming grapes into wine.

Fattoria Zerbina is known in particular for the enhancement of Sangiovese and Albana, with the use of innovative techniques such as noble rot on the plant and the Sauternes-style gradual harvest. Their wines are the result of a synthesis of multiple vineyards that adhere perfectly to the profile of that type of wine. With the Monograph project, the winery offers a prestigious collection of wines from individual Sangiovese vineyards trained in saplings, which best represent the territory to which they belong. Tasting the wines of Fattoria Zerbina is like embarking on a sensory journey to discover an ancient art, reinterpreted with courage and innovation.
