Umbria is a land of great value buys in wine, and the 2016 Foresco is a perfect example to behold. This wine is a blend of 80% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the finished wine sees 12 months in oak. This vintage delivers a fresh and upfront quality of fruit that underlines the frankness and generosity of this mid-weight red. You could pair Foresco with grilled meats, pizza or oven-roasted pasta. Even a cheese platter would do just fine. -WA
Established in 1961, Barberani is a family owned winery based in the Orvieto Classico region in Umbria of Italy. The Orvieto Classico region is one of the high quality dry white wine production areas in Italy, using the Grechetto and Trebbiano varieties. It is also one of the very few Italian wine regions where the conditions are right for noble rots to develop, hence production of botrytis sweet wine is possible. All fruits used for winemaking are from the estate’s own vineyards. Chemical treatments in the vineyards and winery are avoided. The use of sulphur and copper is minimal. Barberani is one of the natural, or nearly natural, wine producers in Italy. The wines are organic and vegan certified.
