The Signature of Felice Mergè: Passion Through Generations

The roots of this exceptional wine run deep. It all began in the 1920s when Mario Mergè discovered his passion for wine and olive oil. His son, Armando, inherited this passion and passed it on to Felice Mergè, the third-generation wine master. In 1996, Felice founded the renowned Poggio Le Volpi winery. Their philosophy? To create wines that embody the soul of Lazio—a blend of rich soils and generations of winemaking expertise. Respect for the land and mastery of winemaking are the cornerstones of their ethos. It's no surprise, then, that Poggio Le Volpi has been a leading name in Lazio's premium wines for many years.

Discover the Wealth of Baccarossa

Each grape is handpicked with love and care by Felice to ensure only the finest reaches the Baccarossa bottle. A year of aging in oak barrels gives the wine its rich complexity. But it doesn't stop there. After the barrel, it's aged for at least four months in the cool cellars of Poggio Le Volpi. Upon opening, a seductive bouquet greets you: black fruit, jam, licorice, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and a subtle oaky note. The taste? A lush palette of ripe fruit like blackberries, cherries, and currants, complemented by hints of tobacco, spices, plums, and much more. In short, Baccarossa is the true king of Lazio!
