About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Puntabella comes from vineyards surrounding Lake Trasimeno in Umbria. The project was created to express the distinctive character of Trasimeno and other historic Umbrian wine-growing areas.

Grapes

60% Sangiovese and 40% Grenache. The vines are trained using the Guyot system, and the grapes are harvested at the end of September.

Ageing

The wine matures for 3 months in stainless steel, followed by at least 3 months in bottle.

Technical data

Colli del Trasimeno Rosato DOC. The first vintage was 2023. Available in a 0.75 L bottle, with an estimated ageing potential of approximately 2 years.

Tasting profile

Pale pink, with reflections recalling the delicacy of rose petals. The fruity and floral bouquet is led by small red berries, pomegranate and white-fleshed peach, accompanied by rose, wildflowers and delicate powdery nuances. The palate is fresh and balanced, with lively acidity and subtle minerality providing structure and persistence. It is enveloping, with a pleasantly savoury finish.

Label / history

Puntabella grew from a project dedicated to highlighting the character of the Trasimeno area. The wine combines fruit from vineyards around the lake with the estate’s ongoing oenological research, seeking freshness, balance and elegance.
