The Natarosa is a distinctive rosé from Cantina di Enza, crafted from fully ripe Aglianico grapes. The name “Natarosa” combines "Nata," meaning born, and "rosa," referring to the wine's pink hue, symbolizing its origin from mature Aglianico fruit.

Crafted with care, the Natarosa has a delicate pink color, with aromas of rose and cherry on the nose. On the palate, it surprises with a slight sweetness from the natural maturation of the Aglianico grapes, beautifully balanced by fresh acidity. The finish is clean, with lingering notes of cherry.

The Aglianico grapes are harvested at full maturity to ensure optimal ripeness. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel to preserve the wine’s freshness and purity. The Natarosa showcases a refined balance between fruitiness and acidity, offering a refreshing and elegant rosé experience.

La cantina di Enza

Founded in 2011 in the historic town of Montemarano, Cantina di Enza is a boutique winery in the heart of Irpinia, Campania’s renowned wine region. Enza Saldutti, a fourth-generation winemaker, carries on her family’s legacy with a deep respect for the land and a commitment to natural viticulture, embracing low-intervention methods to preserve the region’s indigenous grapes.

Spanning 7 hectares, including vineyards with rare post-phylloxera vines over 70 years old, the estate also cultivates olive groves and cereals. The south-facing vineyards, set at 380–400 meters, benefit from the cooling influence of the Calore River, enhancing the structure and intensity of the wines. Since 2016, the estate has been certified organic, with a growing focus on biodynamic farming.

Enza’s minimalist approach avoids chemical additives and filtration, allowing the wines to express their purest form. Her portfolio includes Taurasi DOCG “Padre” Bio, a bold yet elegant Aglianico, Irpinia Aglianico DOC “Passione” Bio, and Campania Rosato “Nata Rosa” IGP, a fresh and vibrant Aglianico rosé. The Dall’uva organic red embodies her dedication to natural winemaking, while Volpe Rossa, made from the rare Coda di Volpe Rosso, offers a refined and unique expression.

Through her passion and innovation, Enza Saldutti has positioned Cantina di Enza as a rising star in Taurasi, crafting wines that honor Irpinia’s rich viticultural heritage and bring its essence to wine lovers worldwide.

Terroir

Taurasi

The terroir of Taurasi, particularly in this area, is defined by its high-altitude vineyards, volcanic soils, and continental climate, making it one of the most structured and age-worthy expressions of Aglianico in Italy. Located in the heart of Irpinia, the vineyards sit at elevations between 300 and 600 meters, benefiting from significant diurnal temperature variation, which allows the grapes to ripen slowly while preserving acidity and aromatic intensity.

The soils here are predominantly volcanic, with layers of tuff, clay, and limestone, which provide excellent drainage and impart a distinct minerality to the wines. The continental climate, with cold winters and warm summers, combined with frequent autumn fog, enhances the complexity and depth of the wines.

This terroir produces Taurasi wines that are bold, structured, and incredibly age-worthy, with deep black fruit, tobacco, leather, and spice notes, firm tannins, and vibrant acidity. The balance of volcanic influence, elevation, and climate creates wines of remarkable longevity, allowing them to evolve gracefully over decades while maintaining their intensity and elegance.

Region

Campania

Campania's terroir is defined by its diverse landscape, ranging from the volcanic soils of Mount Vesuvius to the coastal plains along the Tyrrhenian Sea. The region benefits from a Mediterranean climate, with warm, dry summers and mild winters, allowing for a long growing season. The volcanic origins of the land provide rich, mineral-laden soils, especially in areas like Taurasi and Campi Flegrei, which impart unique depth and complexity to the wines. The diurnal temperature variations between day and night help preserve the grapes’ acidity while promoting aromatic development. Campania is home to some of Italy’s most historic grape varieties, such as Aglianico, which thrives in the volcanic soils of Taurasi, and Fiano and Greco di Tufo, which produce elegant white wines with vibrant acidity and floral notes. The region’s terroir allows for wines that are complex, structured, and full of minerality, with a distinctive sense of place that reflects both its volcanic origins and its coastal proximity.
