Vernaccia di Pergola great local expression of the quality we are dealing with a chalice in his most remarkable innovative tradition. Retinue of Terracruda is a wine that has rediscovered the old traditions of the winery of Helsinki. What makes it especially curious at the sight of the most witty lovers of good wine is its color. A pink almost Claret slightly out of scale following the methodology AIS, but vaguely reminiscent of grapes by a preponderance of the pigments. Maceration is short, yet its particularity is the light load almost similar to sunset; an auspicious color. The drink is particularly cheerful, a siren of the seas that ccompagnarono Ulysses in the long journey to Ithaca. We enchant again from his lively, almost spicy, mellow scent ever, weak-willed. The steel vats where fermentation takes place and subsequent aging can confer and enhance that vivid autumn season, even fruit: citrus tracing is unmistakable. The hills where the screws are resting during winter time, suggest a very well established and diverse olfactory fan; so the aleatico, here called vernaccia di pergola, manages to excite up to go for jaunty culinary combinations. We could not resist the goodness of a cheese and pepper, simple but from sheer "friccicore" local pecorino cheese and spices mixed with curd. That bit of pleasant spiciness combined with the flavor of a homemade wine very captivating and young man has conquered: and so it was, for us, Ithaca. http://www.terracruda.it/codazzo-pergola-doc-rosato/
