Hailing from the sun-drenched hills of the southern Marche, the Viabore Rosso Piceno Superiore is a beautiful expression of regional heritage. This wine draws its character from the ancient soils of Grottammare and Offida, where the cooling breezes of the nearby Adriatic Sea temper the warm Italian sun. The blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese pays homage to the historic winemaking traditions of the Piceni, a pre-Roman civilization renowned for their robust red nectars. Crafted with meticulous care, the wine undergoes controlled fermentation and aging in oak barrels, which imparts a refined structure, velvety tannins, and a harmonious balance of ripe dark berries, wild herbs, and subtle spice.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in 1928 by Giovanni Carminucci, the Carminucci estate is situated in the rolling hills of Grottammare and Offida within the southern Marche region of Italy. Now managed by Piero Carminucci, the family-owned winery focuses on showcasing the authentic character of local terroirs through meticulous vineyard management and low yields. The estate is highly regarded for its expressive red wines, such as the Rosso Piceno Superiore 'Viabore', a classic blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese that beautifully captures the structure, warmth, and maritime influence of the Adriatic coast.
