Vernaculum Pergola Aleatico

Obscure varietal. Jammy and peppery at first, but it blow off to reveal a stable wine of versatile value. Goes with everything from Asian cuisine to grilled chicken.

See previous note

V is for Vernaccia di Pergola. Ripe red fruits aromas... cherries and strawberries... tart cherry acid with a medium- body, earthy undertones and lingering drying tannins do a pretty good job of balancing the fruit. #atoz2021

Ancient varietal hanging out in the Marche... what a beauty: but rough out of the chute needed a long time to blow off ALC but then it showed beautiful delicate tart cherry, pomegranate, sweet baking spice, Earth, mingled with white pepper & licorice. Sort of went back & forth thinking it was like Carignan then Grenache. Juicy but not over the top, medium bodied semi opaque ruby color. Pliable tannins and a bit rustic finish, but really engaging.

Soft and satiny body with a crisp peppery bite. Light jammy fruit. No sweetness

Nice light red

Honeysuckle nose but not too sweet in flavor. Very light in color. Reminds me of rose.

Light red, great for the summer. Roses on roses on roses
