Produced and bottled by Di Majo Norante – Campomarino (CB), Italy
Produced in Italy
Ramitello belongs to the DOC Biferno Rosso. It is a red wine with good character, produced by the Di Majo Norante winery in Pesaro. The grapes, 80% Montepulciano and the rest Aglianico, come from the company's vineyards in Contrada Ramitello Spoltore, where the soils are clayey and slope slowly towards the sea, inhaling the breeze and the scents of the Molise Mediterranean scrub. Here the vines are at the peak of their vigour, having an average age of about 10 years. After racking, the maturation phase is carried out partly in barriques and partly in steel tanks. After blending, the wine is bottled and left in the cellar to age in glass for a further 6 months before release. Intense ruby red with violet hues, the nose opens with an intense bouquet, where hints of plum stand out, with spicy notes reminiscent of leather and liquorice. In the mouth it is full, pleasantly soft and velvety, with a perfectly balanced body. Perfect with richly flavoured dishes, especially white and red meats, it is also ideal when cooking game or when lunch or dinner ends with a sliver of mature cheese.
Di Majo Norante has been making wine from its own grapes since 1800, as evidenced by the cellars under the square and in the old family palace in Campomarino. We are in the province of Campobasso, in the Molise region. Today, as in the past, the company produces wines exclusively with grapes from the 123 hectares of the ancient feud of the Marquis Norante di Santa Cristina. With a traditional approach, and trying to preserve all the characteristics of Mediterranean grape varieties. Ancient grapes such as Aglianico, Montepulciano, Sangiovese and the precious Tintilia for the production of red wines. Falanghina and Greco for the whites. Continuous experimentation with these vines has enabled the wines of the di Majo Norante winery to reach more than remarkable levels of quality, conquering increasingly important slices of the market, in Italy and on the main international markets. Great wines that respond well to the complexity of contemporary taste.
