Guerriero della Terra 2021 Marche IGT - Guerrieri

Guerriero della Terra 2021 – Guerrieri

Azienda Agraria Guerrieri is a family estate inland from Pesaro and Urbino, in the hills rising from the Metauro towards the Apennines, a red-wine area still little known outside the region. Guerriero della Terra is the estate's flagship red: a Marche IGT made from the best selections of the estate's oldest vineyards.

The blend brings together the Marche's two great red grapes, Montepulciano and Sangiovese: the former provides colour, flesh and structure, the latter freshness and lift. The grapes are picked fully ripe, and the result is a generous, full-bodied red built to handle a few years in bottle.

The 2021 is intense and giving: ripe red and black fruit, plum, sweet spice and a smooth texture, with Sangiovese's freshness keeping the palate in balance. Pair it with grilled meat, roasts, pasta with ragù, vincisgrassi and aged cheeses.
