Rosso Piceno is subjected to moderate aging and refinement in the bottle that enhance its natural qualities. Depending on the vintage characteristics, it can be kept for over three years.
Rosso Piceno is produced in a large area that covers a large part of the hilly-coastal strip of the Marche region, with the exception of the valley. Already known at the time of the Romans, it was appreciated and praised by them. Polybius, in describing the passage of Hannibal in the Piceno, pauses to tell that that leader used it to refresh and care for his men and horses (“… opulent fertile province exercitum alebat veteribus vinis, quarum permagna est copia pedes equorum abluens. .. “).
