Saserello Rosso 2025

From the sun-drenched island of Sicily and the talented Andrea Bernardini, Saserello Rosso is a fruit-packed sensation. Previous vintages have a lengthy award pedigree and it’s a BIG customer favorite.

It’s a ‘Super Sicilian’ take on the sought-after ‘Super Tuscan’ style that’s popular—and significantly more expensive—at the heart of the boot. The grapes are grown on Sicily’s rocky coast (the name Saserello is derived from sassi<,/i> which means ‘stones’).

What’s so ‘Super’ about it? The addition of international Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah to Italian native star Sangiovese. In western Sicily, the mineral-rich soils impart deep, complex flavors to Cabernet and Merlot; meanwhile, Syrah and Sangiovese are grown in nearby coastal vineyards that encourage a “new world” ripeness.

Look forward to mouthfuls of sun-baked dark fruit, spicy black pepper and toasty vanilla. It’s a tasty partner for hearty red- and game meats, pasta dishes and full-flavored cheeses.

As always, our Italian wine fans will be racing to get this bestseller in their wine racks. Hurry for your share.
