Ricosso Barbera Appassimento is a distinguished red wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Barbera grape, for its vibrant acidity and rich fruit profile. This particular expression undergoes the appassimento process, where grapes are partially dried before fermentation, concentrating their flavors and enhancing complexity. The result is a wine that exudes aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and subtle hints of spice, creating an inviting bouquet that captivates the senses. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious balance between luscious fruitiness and structured tannins, making it an excellent companion for hearty dishes or enjoyed on its own.
The meticulous craftsmanship behind Ricosso Barbera Appassimento reflects a commitment to quality and tradition. The wine’s deep ruby color hints at its intensity while offering layers of flavor that evolve with each sip. Its medium to full body provides a satisfying mouthfeel complemented by a lingering finish marked by notes of dark chocolate and vanilla from oak aging. Ideal for both casual gatherings and formal occasions, this wine embodies versatility while celebrating the rich heritage of Italian winemaking. Whether paired with grilled meats or aged cheeses, Ricosso Barbera Appassimento promises an enriching experience for any wine enthusiast seeking depth and character in their glass.

Rosso is a category of red wine primarily made from the Sangiovese grape, often blended with other varieties such as Canaiolo, Colorino, and Merlot. This wine style is celebrated for its vibrant flavor profile that includes notes of cherry, plum, and blackberry, complemented by earthy undertones and hints of leather and spice. The aromas are equally enticing, featuring red fruits like cherry and raspberry alongside floral notes of violet and herbal nuances from oregano and thyme.
Typically medium to full-bodied with moderate tannins, Rosso wines can range from smooth to slightly astringent depending on their age and winemaking techniques. Commonly produced in regions such as Tuscany (notably Chianti), Emilia-Romagna (Sangiovese di Romagna), and Lazio (Romania), these wines are versatile companions for various dishes. They pair beautifully with pasta in tomato sauce, grilled meats, pizza, or aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino—making them ideal for casual dining occasions or family gatherings.
