In the heart of the Monferrato wine landscape, a grape variety is carving out a prestigious space for itself due to its ability to express the unique character of the land: Bonarda Piemontese del Monferrato. This grape, cultivated with dedication and passion, is the protagonist of our still wine Anticonformista, a name that evokes boldness and originality.
A journey through origins and identity
When talking about Bonarda, it is important to distinguish between two completely different grape varieties: on one hand, we have Bonarda Piemontese, rooted in the hills of Piedmont (not to be confused with the Lombard Croatina, also often referred to as Bonarda), and on the other, Bonarda Argentina, which is linked to the French-origin grape Douce Noire, now widely cultivated in South America.
Bonarda Piemontese del Monferrato is known for its rich aromatic profile, with fruity notes and an intensity that lends itself well to the production of full-bodied red wines with great personality. Our Anticonformista is a tribute to this unique variety, capable of telling the story of the land with authenticity and passion.
Why call it Anticonformista?
The name Anticonformista is no coincidence: it represents our innovative approach to winemaking and our desire to break the mold. The label, featuring the iconic image of a wild boar’s muzzle, symbolizes strength, independence, and respect for nature.
This wine celebrates the essence of Bonarda Piemontese DOC, embodying the rebellious and adventurous spirit of Monferrato. Anticonformista invites you to explore new taste horizons, offering an exceptional wine experience.
Sensory Profile
At the first taste, Anticonformista grabs attention with its fruity and spicy aroma, shattering the idea of the classic light and sparkling Bonarda. The notes of ripe plum, black cherry, and small berries blend harmoniously with spicy hints. The sip is smooth, with a pleasant freshness and an almond-like aftertaste that enhances its complexity.
The intense ruby red color reflects the richness of the wine, inviting you to discover its aromatic nuances. Vinified as a still wine to enhance its varietal characteristics, Anticonformista follows a modern process: fermentation at controlled temperature (24°C or 75°F for 6-7 days), steel aging, and an alcohol content of 14.5%. The Stelvin cap, a symbol of innovation and practicality, ensures perfect preservation.
Food pairings: ideal with game meat
Game meat, with its earthy notes and rich texture, pairs perfectly with Anticonformista. The structure of the wine and its balanced tannins complement the robust flavors of the meat, offering a symphony of tastes that celebrates nature and our production philosophy.
