The newest addition to this portfolio is the 2005 Ferentano IGT. Produced from the indigenous Roscetto varietal, it was fermented in both stainless steel and barrels, was put through full malolactic, and was given a minimal clarification prior to bottling. It begins slowly aromatically, but builds intensity in the mouth revealing a tremendous, full-bodied, layered, honey character reminiscent of a southern Rhone blend of Roussanne, Viognier, and Marsanne. It could be served with meat dishes given its full body and intensity. This noteworthy value represents a remarkable achievement for this estate.
It should be drunk during the first year of life Kudos to Riccardo and Renzo Cotarella for continuing to deliver remarkable wines at these prices.
