ABOUT FUORISTRADA

Fuoristrada is a testament to Italian winemakers’ respect for the environment. Made from organic grapes sourced from smaller vineyards in Italy, Fuoristrada wines are hand harvested and vegan friendly. A portion of the brand’s sales benefit 1% For The Planet, an organization that provides funding for non-profits dedicated to environmental sustainability.

ABOUT TETRA PAKS

Tetra Pak cartons use 54% less energy, create 80% less greenhouse gasses, produce 60% less solid waste volume and also have 92% less package weight, compared to a 750ml glass wine bottle. Due to their lightweight, space efficient nature, Tetra Paks require 40-50% fewer trucks to deliver the same amount of wine than traditional glass bottles. Finally, Tetra Paks can be easily folded and flattened for recycling. Basically, more wine, less waste!

ABOUT THE WINES

Bianco: Made from Sicilian Grillo, Fuoristrada’s white is crisp, bright and pale lemon in color. On the nose, you’ll enjoy citrus zest with a hint of wild flowers; on the palate it’s well-balanced with a fresh acidity and a touch of minerality.

Rosato: A dry, light rosato from Chianti with citrus and floral aromas. Flavors of lemon, cranberry and cherry with medium-high acidity.

Sangiovese: Also from Chianti, this is classic Italian Sangiovese – intense ruby red with hints of purple; aromas of cherry, red plums, spice; and a medium-bodied palate that’s both fresh and juicy.
