Enantio debuts at court: the ancient variety recovered by Roeno stars in Monte Carlo

On Tuesday, November 12 in Monte Carlo, the French association Francs de Pied selected the Enantio Riserva 1865 Prefillossera di Roeno as the only Italian wine to represent the winemaking excellence of the Bel Paese. Among the special guests of the exclusive gala event was His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco , a long-time passionate supporter of rare wines and authentic territories.

Enantio Riserva 1865 Prefillossera , the flagship product of the company from Brentino Belluno (Verona), has its roots in the Terradeiforti , in a unique wine and cultural heritage. The historic ungrafted variety, rediscovered thanks to the research work of the Veronese winemaking reality, tells the story of the strength of the territory and its traditions, expressed with depth and character in every sip. “Being selected by Francs de Pied, an association that promotes wines produced with ungrafted vines, is a great honor for us,” says Cristina Fugatti , owner of Roeno . “It is a great recognition that highlights the importance of preserving native varieties and ancient winemaking techniques. A milestone that gives me double satisfaction on a research and rediscovery project undertaken firsthand at the university, in which I stubbornly believed and which has brought us this far today.”

The highlight of the evening was the charity auction in which all the ungrafted wines present at the event were auctioned: the proceeds will go to support initiatives to preserve and promote the wine heritage. The Enantio Riserva Prefillossera 1865 , thanks to its historical value and unique organoleptic profile, was among the labels most appreciated by the participants, seeing its prestige recognized at an international level. “The selection of our Enantio Riserva – declared Martina Centa , brand manager and representative of the third generation of Roeno – encourages us to continue the work of preserving our roots and our unique varieties. We are honored to have brought a piece of our history and our land to Monte Carlo, to share it with important personalities and with those who recognize the value of authenticity in every glass.”

The Francs de Pied evening in Monte Carlo was a unique moment for Roeno, which consolidates its commitment to promoting the territory and ancient Italian wine varieties.
