'Furore Rosso Riserva' Costa d'Amalfi DOC Marisa Cuomo 2018

The Furore Rosso Riserva Costa d'Amalfi DOC is an intense red wine, produced by the Marisa Cuomo winery. It is obtained from a blend composed of two local varieties present in equal percentages. These are Aglianico, renowned and productive, and Piedirosso, less known, but much appreciated. The two vines are grown on terraces overlooking the sea which enjoy perfect sun exposure, as well as the favorable conditions given by the calcareous substrate of the soil. When they reach full maturity, generally towards the end of October, the bunches are picked by hand. In the cellar the work begins with destemming and continues with alcoholic fermentation, which lasts for about a month and includes maceration on the skins. For refinement, the wine rests in French barriques on the first passage for a year. Excellent immediately, Furore Rosso Riserva Costa d'Amalfi DOC boasts the potential to reserve pleasant surprises even after 5-6 years.
