{"product_id":"ampeleia-hot-couple-natural-wine","title":"Ampeleia Hot Couple","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ampeleia Hot Couple pairs two 2020 wines from the same biodynamic estate in Roccatederighi, Maremma: the Unlitro (1 liter) and the Rosato di Ampeleia (750ml). Both are certified biodynamic under Demeter and made with native yeast fermentation in concrete tanks. No oak, no added color, no manipulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Unlitro is a red blend of Alicante Nero (Grenache), Carignano, Mourvèdre, Sangiovese, and Alicante Bouschet sourced from the Vigna Cannucceto site at 200–350 meters above sea level. Grapes are harvested in early September, with 10% of the batch going through carbonic maceration, the rest whole-berry or crushed. Skin contact runs 2–3 days, followed by 6 months aging in cement tanks. At 12% ABV, it is light-bodied, crunchy, and built for the table rather than the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Rosato di Ampeleia is 80% Carignano and 20% Alicante Nero. The Carignano was direct-pressed first; then whole clusters of Alicante Nero were added to the tank and macerated for 12 days, giving the wine its deep coral color and a hint of tannin. All fermentation and aging take place in concrete. The result is dry, saline, and persistent — closer in structure to a light red than a conventional rosé.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmpeleia farms 35 hectares across three altitude bands in the Colline Metallifere, a UNESCO Global Geopark. The estate has been fully biodynamic since 2009, with organic certification confirmed by 2013. Winemaker Marco Tait has run the cellar since the estate's first vintage in 2002.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ampeleia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41129597403335,"sku":"","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/ampeleia-duo-tuscany-natural-wine-primal-wine.jpg?v=1780185642","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/ampeleia-hot-couple-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
