Description
The Conte Rosso is made from 50% Sangiovese and 50% Montepulciano grapes and has an intense ruby red color with delicate aromas of cherries and flowers. It is a complex wine that is both robust and elegant due to its refreshing acidity. The success of Il Conte Villa Prandone wines stems from the passion for the vineyards and the land. The combination of a light breeze from the Adriatic Sea and that from the Sibilinni Mountains creates a very healthy and balanced microclimate that guarantees ideal ripening of the grapes. All grapes are harvested by hand in small plots.
The grapes are also treated with care in the cellar. Gentle pressing is done to ensure that the wine remains fresh and not too tannic. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures for 8-10 days. The wine matures "sur lie" for 6 months, which contributes to its softness.

More About Il Conte Villa Prandone:
Il Conte Villa Prandone was born in the heart of the Piceno region, in the hills of the characteristic medieval village of Monteprandone. The winery was founded as a company in 1988, but the first vineyards were already cultivated in the 1960s. The vineyards were not yet owned at the time, it was not until 1988 that part of the vineyard was purchased and the company was founded. In the 1990s, investments were made in their own brand and the winery was renovated. New plots were also purchased and more and more vineyards were planted.
