Item Description
A blend of 25% each Sangiovese, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot fermented in stainless steel. Ruby red in colour, this is a youthful wine with perfumes of red fruits and flowers with vegetal undertones. It is fresh and juicy on the palate, bursting with cherry fruit and an attractive note of wild rose. ~ Winery Notes

Zingari is the result of an experimental approach to viticulture and vinification. The vineyards that produce the grapes are located at the foot of the hills, partly in the village of Suvereto and partly in Riotorto. The soil is predominantly clay and sandy; in this case resulting in a light, aromatic wine. The label is inspired by a pictorial interpretation of the spiral theme, which represents the repetitions of life and the cyclic nature of evolution. It is a symbol of the fertility of the earth.

This 300 hectare estate, created by the Moretti family of Bellavista fame, is situated in Suvereto in the Val di Cornia. When Vittorio Moretti, together with his daughter Francesca, set out in search of a property in the Maremma in 1997, they asked Attilio Scienza, Italy's most celebrated viticultural professor and consultant, to help them find the best spot. Scienza came up with Petra (the name is derived from the Latin for stone, or 'pietra' in Italian), which is southeast of Bolgheri and inland from the sea. The estate now has 97 hectares of vineyard, which surround a splendid modernist winery built by the Swiss architect, Mario Botta.
