More savory than sweet and quite complex, the 2022 Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Superiore lifts from the glass with an herbal-tinged blend of wild strawberries, wet stone and rose petals. It's soft-textured and juicy to the core, with zesty acidity that enlivens its sour cherry-berry fruit and mineral tones, coming across as energetic and fruit-focused. The 2022 finishes tactile yet fresh, gently gripping the palate with tension as a flourish of sweet spice and licorice lingers on and on. The 2022 Villa Gemma is simply stunning, deep and full of character, showing the combination of the warm and dry vintage and Cerasuolo's inherent vibrancy. Well done!

An herbaceous rosé, with tangy acidity and flavors of wild strawberry, blood orange and stone. Drink now.
