Hi Folks, Now this is a great deal for you today! Originating from the Eternal City itself, Rome, World renowned for Empire, The Vatican and La bella figura, comes our very first featured Red from the Lazio region! Yes, it might of taken us more than a decade to experience a Roman Red, but I can tell you after tasting the Federici Roma Rosso DOC 2021 with my colleagues, the wait is surely worth it! Not only did this enchant us with its beautiful aromas of ripe red cherries, laced with hints of rose petals and crushed raspberries, but there was also concentration, complexity and silkiness to match, that truly makes this blend of Montepulciano and the local indigenous varietal Cesanese shine way above its price point! And its not just us that were mesmerised by its beauty...The 2021 vintage won a Double Gold Medal at the CWSA International and was awarded a Gold Medal from the Asia Wine Trophy. I should also add that the Federici Roma Rosso DOC has a tremendous track record of consistent brilliance having been rated by Luca Maroni Italy's most famous wine critic with an average score of a massive 97.5 Points, from the previous 4 releases, making this one of his favourite Reds, now that is some endorsement! For the lucky ones of you who've had the pleasure of relaxing with a lovely Red after a long day of sightseeing in a city like no other, Rome, we think this Red might bring back some wonderful memories.

''Some of Rome and the region of Lazio itself already rank among Italy’s least-known but best examples of wine. You might say that we now find ourselves on the brink of rediscovering the true greatness of wines that were once much sought after by the denizens of ancient Rome and throughout the Roman Empire.''
