Cantine Belisario Rosso Conero 2024
£13.45
The wine
Rosso Conero is the Marche's great red, made from Montepulciano on the slopes of Monte Conero above the Adriatic. This is a warm, generous example from Belisario.
Deep ruby in the glass, it offers ripe black cherry, plum and a savoury, herby spice over smooth tannins, finishing warm and moreish. A characterful, food-loving red.
Serve at cool room temperature, with roast lamb, grilled meats, rich pasta and hard cheese.

View all Cantine Belisario winesHigh in the cool inland valleys of the Marche, Cantine Belisario is the guardian of Verdicchio di Matelica, one of central Italy's most distinguished white wines. Grown far from the sea in a natural amphitheatre of hills, these Verdicchios have a mineral tension and freshness all their own.
From fresh everyday whites to the age-worthy Cambrugiano Riserva, the range shows the grape's remarkable breadth. Alongside them sit characterful Marche reds, from perfumed Lacrima to structured Rosso Conero, each true to its origin.
Precise, mineral and beautifully made, these are among Italy's great white-wine bargains. Matelica is a hidden corner of the wine world, and Belisario is its most eloquent voice.
Serve the whites well chilled and the reds cool, and discover one of Italy's most rewarding and overlooked regions.
