Product description
The name ‘Rosso Fossile’ refers directly to the terroir that characterises all of Cantina Santoiolo’s wines: the fossilised seabed of Narni, which was covered by the sea three million years ago. This is the estate’s signature blend, a blend of Syrah, Malbec and Alicante in proportions that vary from year to year, depending on the best each grape variety has to offer that season.
The grapes are harvested by hand in September and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel. Ageing takes place exclusively in steel and then in the bottle. In the glass, the Rosso Fossile is ruby red with aromas of flowers and crisp red fruit. On the palate, it is lively, fresh and juicy, with a directness and drinkability that make it suitable for any occasion.
A versatile wine suitable throughout a meal and as an aperitif. Thanks to its fresh and juicy character, it pairs well with a wide range of dishes. Serve at 15–16°C.
Wine purchased via Onwine comes directly from the winery. All wineries pack the bottles themselves and hand them over to our shipping partner. Onwine works with boxes the size of 6 or 12 bottles.
To guarantee safe delivery, it is therefore also a requirement that orders are always made in multiples of 6 bottles.
The following shipping costs apply:
6 bottles at the same winery: €6,-
12+ bottles at the same winery: No shipping costs
You can order from several wineries at the same time. The above shipping costs apply to each individual winery.
