アンペレイア
Ampeleia
RedCabernet Franc · Sangiovese · Alicante Nero · Carignano · Mourvèdre · Alicante Bouschet
Ampeleia's flagship red, blending roughly 70% Cabernet Franc with 20% Sangiovese and a final 10% split among Alicante Nero, Carignano, Mourvèdre and Alicante Bouschet from the estate's oldest, highest parcels at Ampeleia di Sopra (450-600m). Fully destemmed and macerated for 10-15 days, it ages about a year in cement tanks and a further two years in bottle before release, producing a savory, layered wine with notes of black cherry, violet, wild strawberry and, in cooler vintages, leather and dried eucalyptus.
カベルネ・フラン
Cabernet Franc
RedCabernet Franc
Part of Ampeleia's 'Monovarietali' project spotlighting single grapes and single vineyards, this 100% Cabernet Franc comes from the estate's youngest-planted parcels. It shows the variety's classic mint and crushed white pepper edge alongside forest berries and sour cherry, medium-bodied with silky, refined tannins.
カリニャーノ
Carignano
RedCarignano
A 100% Carignano from Ampeleia's Mediterranean-variety plots, cool and precise despite its Maremma sun. Dark berries — blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant — meet an aromatic herb garden of wild mint, sage and rosemary, with fine spice notes of allspice and black pepper, all at a restrained 12% alcohol.
アリカンテ
Alicante
RedAlicante Nero
A monovarietal expression of Alicante Nero (a Tuscan biotype of Grenache that Ampeleia helped revive from near extinction), delicate yet savory with orange peel, lemon and dried strawberry character, medium-to-light body, and a vivid, saline finish.
ケポス
Kepos
RedAlicante Nero · Mourvèdre · Carignano
Named after the Greek word for 'garden,' Kepos is a field blend of Alicante Nero, Mourvèdre and Carignano (roughly 50/30/20) from the older vines at Ampeleia di Mezzo, harvested and co-fermented on the same day. Often described as Ampeleia's 'little brother,' it offers cherries, raspberry, citrus, herbs and flowers with crunchy fruit, fine tannins and a saline minerality from vineyards closest to the sea.
ビアンコ・ディ・アンペレイア
Bianco di Ampeleia
WhiteorangeTrebbiano · Ansonica · Malvasia
An orange wine blending Trebbiano, Ansonica and Malvasia, co-harvested and co-fermented in concrete vats with 7-12 days of skin contact before aging, also in concrete. Intensely perfumed with quince, pear, blood orange, chamomile and beeswax, it has a light body but a dense, chewy, almost tannic texture and a persistent, juicy, mineral finish — a true gastronomic white.
