2017 Rosso Ognostro

Marco Tinessa set out to apply his passion for wine a decade ago, inspired by the likes of Château Rayas, Coche-Dury, Soldera and Frank Cornelissen. It began as something resembling a hobby, living in Milan, renting vineyards in Campania, transporting his fruit by refrigerated truck, and making his wines alongside Frank Cornelissen on Etna. However, today, Tinessa has increased his holdings in Montemarano, learned from his experiences, adapted his processes, and making some of the most unique and exciting wines coming out of Campania. Granted, he has now given his full attention to this project, having temporarily moved his winemaking to Milan, all the while building a new facility in Campania. Keep your eyes on Marco Tinessa, because his future looks very bright.
