The red wine, Biferno Rosso, is produced from the grapes, Montepulciano (70-80%) and Aglianico (15-20%), with permission to add local, non-aromatic red grapes (0-15%).
The wine is a more or less intense ruby red, that becomes more garnet red with age. It has an interesting and characteristic aroma, which after some years becomes more ethereal. The taste is dry, harmonious and smooth, with a, at times, slightly tannic aftertaste.
There is also a Biferno Rosso Superiore with a higher alcohol concentration, and an aged Riserva type.
Goes well with most everything on the table.

Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
Most tourists who have visited Valle d’Aosta (Aosta Valley), have probably never given the region’s name or wines a second thought. Here it’s about skiing on the dramatic slopes around Breuil-Cervinia, at the base of the gigantic mountain, Matterhorn. But the region offers exciting things to do in the après-ski department.
