Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC Rosato Rosa-ae 2025 Torre dei Beati

What kind of wine it is

The Rosa-ae by Torre dei Beati is a Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, a rosé wine made from Cordisco grapes. It shows a bright cherry-red color and good structure, with a fresh, pleasant aromatic profile.

Where it comes from

The grapes come from the estate's vineyards in Abruzzo, grown at 250-300 meters above sea level, with different exposures. The soil is clay-limestone. The vines are trained to Abruzzese pergola and spurred cordon.

How it's made

First in the vineyard and then on the sorting table, a very strict selection of the grapes is carried out. Vinification takes place in stainless steel and combines three origins: one part by saignée after a cold pre-maceration, one part by very gentle direct pressing of whole clusters, and one part from cold maceration on the skins. Fermentation is at a controlled temperature. Maturation also takes place in stainless steel.

Tasting notes

In the glass it is consistent, with a typical bright cherry-red hue and faint violet highlights in its youth. The aromas are fresh and persistent, with strawberry, pomegranate and cherry, plus a light citrus note typical of the area. There are also elegant floral hints, with rose standing out. On the palate it has good volume and an excellent balance between softness and a lively acidic and mineral component. This balance extends the persistence and makes the finish stimulating.

Food pairings

Very versatile at the table. It pairs with Italian-style mixed antipasti, sauced first courses, soups of pulses and grains, white meats, more elaborate fish dishes and pizza. It is ideal with brodetto alla vastese.

When to serve it

It is an all-meal wine, suited to informal lunches and dinners and convivial occasions when you want a fresh, versatile rosé. Serve it in a rosé wine glass to bring out its aromas. Thanks to its freshness and ease of pairing, it works well on tables with different dishes.
