Wine Description

Rosé di Lulù features fruit from the single-vineyard Vigna de Trono planted over 50 years ago to Nero di Troia. At once aromatic and highly savory in character, Nero di Troia (also: Uva di Troia), is a significant and fine grape variety native to Puglia. Botromagno excels in producing red wines from this grape, and has also turned to the rosato option to great success. High elevation fruit at 700 meters ASL yields aromatic berries, and stainless stell fermentation and aging ensures ideal expression and freshness.

Acclaim
“The grape here is Nero di Troia, and the wine is big but balanced with herbal notes dancing among the red fruits.”
— Santé, Apr 2019
“A Pugliese blend of Montepulciano and Nero di Troia, which is a perfume-bomb grape native to the region. In this bottle the two combine to create a strong impression of bright red berries (raspberry, strawberry, redcurrant) and ripe cherries. It’s not in the “ethereal” or “delicate” range; it’s fruity and earthy and solid and structured. There’s a thing in the terroir of many Italian wines where they seem to taste like the soil they grow in is geologically ancient? That. So it’s a fun counterpoint of “old” and “youthful” and it will certainly enhance your dinner hour.”
