Barberani consistently raises the bar for their entire region creating some of the most interesting, highly sought after wine. Ian D’Agata recently gushed about the winery saying, “Given the high quality across Barberani’s entire range of wines, with no duds whatsoever, I believe it is Umbria’s best estate.”
The Barberani estate is located on the Orvieto-Todi road in the hills above Lake Corbara where the River Tiber flows. This is the oldest and most prestigious production area of Orvieto wine, which is known as “Classico”.
Their 2019 Rosato is a particular high note from the estate. For the price, it’s an amazing opportunity to see what this incredible producer is capable of.
“Here I’m finding a beautifully perfumed expression of Sangiovese Rosato, as the 2019 Barberani Amore lifts from the glass with dusty florals, young peach, and melon tones. On the palate, silky textures coast across a core of brisk acidity, ushering in notes of citrus-tinged apple with sweet inner florals developing toward the close. It finishes fresh, clean, but also quite energetic, as sour melon and orchard fruits fade, leaving a twang of saline-minerality. This is so pretty, and at only 10% abv, it makes for a perfect summer sipper.” – Eric Guido, Vinous

Recently Wolffer Estate has expanded their famous Rose line to now include a Cotes de Provence Rose. For my money, it’s hands down a better bottling – an energetic and super fresh pink wine created from the French staple Rose grapes of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah as opposed to the Long Island version that has a whole lot of varietals mixed in. It’s bright and balanced and the perfect treat for the pool or beach as the weather warms.

This is a Nicholas Faithful favorite. Even though it’s technically a non-vintage it was last disgorged in the 2020 vintage. La Cravantine, is a sparkling rosé of 100% Cabernet Franc, bone-dry, super fresh and with bubbles so tiny and fine, it puts most “real” Champagne to shame. Appealing strawberry and mineral scents are encased in a firm structure with a dry and spicy quality in the palate. This wine is incredibly versatile – perfect with just about any fish, fried food, or do like I do and enjoy it on it’s own.

“Aromas of bark, dark cherries and flowers, too. It’s medium- to full-bodied with purity of fruit that runs the length of the wine. It goes on for minutes. Very fine tannins. From organically grown grapes. Needs three or four years to completely come together, but gorgeous. Drink after 2026.” -James Suckling
The wine is so dang good, nearly every single one of my staff tried to take the sample bottle home when it was brought into the restaurant. It’s just so juicy, lively and pure. Even without the score, this is a total layup. This is a gorgeous French Rosé at an absurd price. One of the absolute best quality-to-price ratio offers of the year, every single year… no questions asked.
