BIANCO UMBRIA IGP Vitiano Bianco was born from one of the many experimental vineyards Falesco has planted through its relationship with the University of Viterbo. The grapes (equal parts Chardonnay and Vermentino) thrive in the sedimentary clay soils around the Marciliano Estate. Harvested in September, the grapes are crushed and vinified separately, then blended together to create an excellent wine of unparalleled value.

ROSATO UMBRIA IGP Vitiano Rosato is produced from equal parts Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and a small component of Aleatico grapes, manually harvested at their optimal ripeness. After a brief period of maceration at a very cool temperature, the juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness and bright color. Within the same production area as Vitiano Rosso, the soil with the most suitable characteristics was selected to grow these grapes for the vinification of rosato wines.

VINTAGE: ______

ROSSO UMBRIA IGP A blend of equal parts Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sangiovese grapes grown in the region of Umbria, Vitiano Rosso is vinified in stainless steel tanks and aged in French oak barrels for three months before being bottled. Made in a way that adheres to Riccardo Cotarella’s philosophy of meticulous winemaking, the result is a delicious, youthful red at a terrific value.
