Amerigo Red Wine

Amerigo Vino Rosso d'Italia is a signature rich Italian blend, that features a significant proportion of Italian sangiovese grapes. It is vinified by Tenuta Torciano in Tuscany, and bottled by Bellavini Winery in California. This is a bold but well-balanced wine, with densely fruity aromas, and appealing flavors of pomegranate and blueberry. Restrained tannins create balance and depth.

Bellavini Winery is a Californian winery, founded by Pierluigi Giachi of Tenuta Torciano together with his family and American partners. Amerigo is the realization of their desire to produce important wines in California. The Amerigo rosso was transported from Tenuta Torciano in tanks, and bottled at the Bellavini winery in Ukiah, California. This is an effort to be more environmentally sustainable. By transporting the wine in bulk, and to not ship glass, boxes or corks, the carbon emission rate is much reduced. The larger volume in the tanks also means that the quality of the wine remains intact, and aromas and flavors are just as fresh as when the day it left Tuscany.
