The "Erasmo" is the flagship product of the entire range offered by the Maria Pia Castelli winery, a small producer in the Marche region located in Monte Urano. It is a red wine made from 100% Montepulciano grapes, where the long aging period, a total of five years between wood and bottle, contributes to developing a complex personality on the nose, creating a satisfying and balanced sip. A label to give to all those who are passionate about full-bodied red wines.

The grapes, carefully selected during harvesting, ferment spontaneously in oak vats, macerating for over 20 days, undergoing malolactic fermentation in barriques. Aging also takes place in barriques, lasting a full 24 months, and then continues, after bottling, for another 3 years directly in glass.

The "Erasmo" is a wine that reveals itself with an intense and deep ruby red color. The bouquet of aromas that envelops the nose speaks of notes of berries, enriched by more spicy and balsamic touches, which contribute to making the olfactory profile of this product complex. On the palate, it is full-bodied, balanced, with a sip endowed with pleasant freshness, also enhanced by a finely integrated tannic structure; it concludes with a persistent finish, characterized by a particularly fruity aftertaste.

The pinnacle of the entire production of the Maria Pia Castelli winery, to be paired with main courses of red meat and game
