  • Tintilia stands as a significant indigenous grape variety emblematic of Molise. Despite its robust and resilient nature, it never found favor among farmers due to its low grape yield per bunch, prompting a preference for more productive varieties.
  • However, the dawn of the 20th century witnessed a remarkable turn for Tintilia: a wine made from this grape variety in Molise earned a prestigious gold medal at the Paris Wine Exhibition of 1900.
  • The precise origins of Tintilia and its status as a true native variety have sparked prolonged debates over time.

All Tintilia wines boast remarkably deep, almost ink-like hues, accompanied by fruit-forward profiles that exude a creamy richness. However, what sets them apart from mere New World imitations are the subtle underbrush and herbal nuances that add complexity and depth. Even in their boldest expressions, Tintilia wines maintain a balanced acidity, ensuring that even the more approachable renditions possess a midweight charm and effortless drinkability.
