This Rosso Leggero, or “light red,” is the kind of wine you want to bring on a hike and crush (as in, drink quickly). Casual with a crown cap, this wine is a basket of raspberries and rose petals on a warm day. Light on its feet and low in alcohol (only 11%), there are no rules here, just crack open, drink chilled, or heck – serve over ice in a pinch. You’ll be done with it before the ice melts 😉
Delicious With
Great with a wide variety of fish, chicken, and tofu seasoned with fresh herbs like basil or mint. Try with honey baked ham, meat or cheese-filled tortellini, or hard cheeses like Pecorino Romano.
Their Cred
Nestled in the Alto Adige region of Italy where most grapes are sold to wine cooperatives, Pranzegg is one of a few wineries to grow and produce their own wines. Third generation winemaker Martin & his partner Marion converted the farm to biodynamic in 2008, aka organic farming that minimizes harm to the earth and maximizes harmony among the people, plants, soil, and animals. With everything done by hand, there are no tractors, and the winemaking duo focuses on native Italian grapes Lagrein and Schiava. For Martin, it is about focus. 'As a winegrower, it is primarily my intention to narrate the region, the scene, the year and our way of living. Working biodynamically helps us not to blur the narration.’
