Leonardo Bussoletti is a passionate advocate for Umbrian wines and at the forefront of a revival of historic native grape varieties, like Ciliegiolo, his pride and joy. The name comes from the word "ciliegia" ("cherry" in Italian) due to its distinct cherry fruit notes. The estate is located in the wildest and southernmost part of Umbria.
"Lively cherry red colour, the palate is vibrant with crunchy red cherry fruit, laced with sweet spices, supple tannins in support. A true expression of the Ciliegiolo variety."
It is hard to imagine a more exciting or varied wine-producing country than Italy. With a vibrant winemaking history spanning over 2,000 years, and vineyards stretching from the Alps through the Appenine mountains to Sicily, the Italian peninsula is home to an enormous range of climates, topographies and soil typeshosting hundreds of distinctive grapes unique to Italy.
