Tenuta Vincenzo Nardone 'Pupo Zero' Rosato Rose, Campania, Italy

2021 TENUTA VINCENZO NARDONE 'PUPO ZERO' ROSATO ROSE

Artistry in Every Sip

From the heart of Campania, Italy, comes a rosé that captures the essence of its creator—Pupo, also known as Nicola Nardone. His philosophy, deeply rooted in the traditions of his volcanic estate in Venticano, is simple yet profound: "Wine is an expression of those who make it. I do it in an artisanal way!" Pupo's approach to winemaking marries the artisanal touches of the old world with the spirited innovation of the new, resulting in wines that are not just drunk but experienced.

A Palette of Nature

The 2021 'Pupo Zero' Rosato Rosé is a masterclass in balance and intensity.

This Wine doesn't just whisper of its origins—it sings, reflecting the volcanic personality of its maker and the vibrant terroir of Campania.

The Pupo Promise

Nicola's dedication to his craft and deep love for his land is evident in every glass of 'Pupo Zero.'

Here, tradition meets rebellion—a dance of rigor from Bordeaux's schools with the free-spirited nature of Campanian winemaking.
