Ferrero is an artisanal estate in the south westerly corner of Montalcino producing small batches of Brunello di Montalcino and Tuscan rosso's such as this one. Claudia Ferrero and her husband/winemaker Pablo Härri's estate is bordered by Argiano and Banfi's Riserva vineyard "Poggio all'Oro". Pablo has been a winemaker in Montalcino since the 80's, and he spent 15 years as the lead winemaker at Banfi. This delicious Super Tuscan here is named for their daughter, Pepita.
The heart of the estate is a traditional stone – built farmhouse from about year 1900, restored in the 1980s. The upper floor is used for living, while the ground floor is part of the winery, together with the farm houses that were recently transformed into vinification and aging cellars. Look for an intense purplish red color. The peppery spice of Alicante and the deep black cherry and tannin typical of Cabernet dominate, framed by a noble oak texture resulting from aging.
Rounded out by the ripeness of the Merlot, well balanced by the acidity brought by Montepulciano. The tasty fruit leads to a long aftertaste.
