2021 Valle d’Aosta Rosso “Torrette Supérieur”
Château Feuillet
Torrette is an appellation made predominantly from Petit Rouge, another local grape that gives a very dark, fruity, and crunchy red wine. Maurizio typically blends in some of the native Mayolet for texture in his regular Torrette bottling, which he raises in stainless steel tanks. For this version, he dries the Petit Rouge grapes briefly, then ages the resulting wine in large casks. Despite this treatment, it remains fresh and vigorous—a gripping, delightfully complex mountain red that makes a hauntingly delicious match for Fontina cheese!

The grapes are dried for several days after harvest, then pressed and aged in barrel to give an equally lively red with a bit more guts and bass notes.

Fumin truly is, as Feuillet’s vigneron Maurizio Fiorano puts it, “an age-old pearl of local enology.”
