About Maixei Rossese di Dolceacqua

In the Italian municipality of Dolceacqua, in Liguria, we find Maixei, a mini cooperative that was formed in 1978 with the aim of protecting and promoting an endangered native variety, the Rossese di Ventimiglia. The result is very successful and surprising. Fine and elegant wines that combine the tradition of past generations with modern production systems. But if this unique variety stands out for anything, it is for the characteristics of the territory it is grown in. These are small plots lying in an area of foothills ranging from 300 to 600 m above sea level on slopes supported by dry stone walls, called “maixei”. And this is where the wine gets its name.

Among the wines they make here, Maixei Rossese di Dolceacqua is the star of the house. A 100% Rossese di Ventimiglia that comes from vineyards grown by the various winegrowers who are part of the cooperative. This variety grows in predominantly clay-sandy soils, with the traditional system of young plants, with only one spur per branch. All the work is done by hand and once the grapes reach the winery, they are selected and gently pressed to begin fermentation with selected yeasts at a controlled temperature (28°C) in stainless steel tanks. During maceration (4-6 days), the usual pumping over and delestage are carried out and finally the aging and malolactic fermentation take place in stainless steel tanks.

A symbol of the red wine of this entire Italian region, Maixei Rossese di Dolceacqua is the first DOC Rossese di Dolceacqua wine. A celebration for this cooperative that is part of a tradition and, above all, part of a territory.

 

2020

Maixei Rossese di Dolceacqua 2020 is a succulent red wine brimming with spiced aromas, cherry nuances, and hints of dried roses. On the palate, it is well-balanced, subtly dry, and expansive. This wine features a slight tannic streak, a pleasing progression, and a characteristic bitter aftertaste inherent to the grape variety.
