{"product_id":"rosso-de-veo-umbria-rosso-paolo-bea-natural-wine","title":"Rosso de Veo 2015","description":"\u003cp\u003eRosso de Veo is Paolo Bea's younger-vine Sagrantino, sourced principally from the Cerrete vineyard, which sits at the highest elevation point in Montefalco between 1,300 and 1,500 feet above sea level. The soil is clay and limestone threaded with small pebbles deposited by an ancient riverbed. The wine is declassified to Umbria IGT rather than Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG, a choice in keeping with the Bea family's indifference to appellation politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWinemaking follows the same protocol as the estate's single-vineyard Sagrantinos: fermentation with native yeasts, no temperature control, and a cuvaison of 40 to 50 days. The wine is then aged one year in stainless steel tanks, two years in large oak barrels, and one additional year in bottle before release. It is bottled unfiltered and without additions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2015 vintage shows a hazy medium garnet color. The nose opens with bright cherry, crushed black cherry, dark earth, balsamic spice, and aromatic herbs. On the palate, powdery tannins wrap around a core of red and blue fruit cut through with citrusy acidity and a saline mineral thread. The finish is long and grippy, with fruit concentration that rewards extended decanting or further cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrinking window per Vinous (93 points, Eric Guido, August 2021): 2022 to 2032. Expect significant sediment; decanting is strongly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paolo Bea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39678127210695,"sku":"PBEADVEO15C","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/paolo-bea-rosso-de-veo-natural-wine-primal-wine.jpg?v=1780186258","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/rosso-de-veo-umbria-rosso-paolo-bea-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
