Paolo Bea Rosso de Veo

Paolo Bea’s wines remain singular—boisterous, unabashedly wild expressions of the sun-drenched hills of Umbria, each new vintage of which is eagerly anticipated by a legion of loyal wine enthusiasts. Bea’s “Rosso de Veo” is a selection of the Bea estate’s younger Sagrantino vines, principally from the “Cerrete” vineyard which graces the highest point in Montefalco. Produced similarly to Bea’s single-vineyard Sagrantino offerings, with long macerations and time in cask. Unfiltered, with notes of dark berries, dried herbs, and earthy nuances on the nose, this red is layered and bold. One sip and you’ll understand why Bea is considered one of the most exciting winemakers in Italy.
