The hills surrounding the town of Pesaro, situated in the north of the Marches Region, are areas characterized by great ancient history, traditions and memories connected to famous aristocratic families such as Da Montefeltro, Malatesta, Sforza and Della Rovere.
Those hills, made up of sand, tuff and clay, have vineyards in the middle of cultivated lands and woodlands, where the spring florescence gives a positive connotation to this area.
The grapevine assimilates the essence of this terroir enriching the grapes with substances which give the wine its strong personality.
The following wine is born on those hills:
Suffragium 2011
Marche IGT Rosso
This vineyard is called “Le Terrazze”. It is a terracing vineyard near the Adriatic Sea, positioned 100 meters above sea level, on a tuff and sand soil where the northeast wind called bora, the northwest wind (Maestrale) and the Tramontana, while caressing the vineyards, settle the sea salt; the hot and dry wind of libeccio, instead, makes the grapes perfectly ripe.
