Project “f” is an idea that goes on with the wisdom of creating something special: a special wine, the most rewarded “Gualdo del Re” is Merlot in a bottle made by the famous Carlo Moretti’s glassworks in Murano and his art of glassblowing.

Nico Rossi and “Gualdo del Re” are synonyms for outstanding Merlot wines. The area of the Val di Cornia offers perfect conditions for growing wine. Excellent soil and terrain as well as suitable climatic circumstances allow for best results. Due to a strict reduction of yields of the vineyard the quality of the grapes was increased following the rule of quality instead of quantity.

The piece of art that surrounds this valuable nectar is an artwork by the famous artisan glassblowing company of Carlo Moretti in Murano. The “soffiatori del ¬vetro” actually managed to blow new life into the classic Chianti “fiasco” with its straw basket, by quoting the shape only. One of the well-kept secrets of ¬Venetian glassblowing is the ¬combination of liquid glass in different colours and structures, all in one blow. Exceptionally beautiful but – due to an unusual strength of the glass – as resilient as machine made press-glass. This is necessary to guarantee stability when the cork is applied using 80 kg of pressure. An elongated bottle neck makes sure that the specially manufactured corks from Portugal keep the bottle airtight.

Exclusive and limited
