Itinerari enogastronomico - culturali
ASSAPORANDO il ROSSO CONERO tra vigneti e cantine (1 parte) Week alla scoperta del famosissimo vino della zona del Monte Conero. Grazie alla vicinanza del mare si è creato un meraviglioso ambiente per la coltivazione delle uve rosse: un microclima continuamente ravvivato dalle brezze marine e un terreno calcareo, povero ma di grande struttura, permettono al vitigno Montepulciano di esprimere nel Rosso Cónero una tipicità impossibile altrove. Lungo la strada del Rosso Cònero,tra ginestre, corbezzoli e ligustri, si potranno scoprire le vigne che, ora silenziosamente aggrappate a impervi costoni, ora voluttuosamente adagiate su morbide colline, fanno di ogni Rosso Cónero un “cru” meritevole di essere conosciuto e assaggiato nelle splendide cantine che ne punteggiano il territorio.
Visite e Degustazioni Le degustazioni avranno inizio con il vincitore di numerosi premi in una piccola cantina dove la simpatia dei proprietari ci accoglierà. OFFAGNA, uno dei borghi medioevali più belli d’Italia e bandiera arancione, ci attende in tutta la sua atmosfera quasi fiabesca, di un’altra epoca. Visiteremo una villa fortificata costruita nel 1668 con la funzione di residenza estiva per i nobili che l’abitarono, con l'intento anche di raccogliervi tutte le attività agricole che verranno mostrate: la cantina per la pigiatura e la vinificazione e i sotterranei per la conservazione dei vini da invecchiamento, il granaio, il frantoio, la falegnameria e l'attrezzeria. Un po' di relax sarà goduto nel meraviglioso parco che la circonda ammirando le straordinarie uve Montepulciano in purezza, ottenute da un vigneto di 15 ettari di circa 15 anni di età, per un amabile Rosso Conero!
tra vigneti e cantine (II parte) Proseguiamo per una casa vinicola dalla storia centenaria e può essere annoverata fra le più antiche in Italia (fine del 1800). Da allora questa azienda si è sempre distinta evolvendo la tecnica enologica, ma sempre nel rispetto dei sistemi tradizionali della produzione del vino. Il palato sarà ancora deliziato nell’azienda vinicola che comprende una superficie totale di 200 ettari con caratteristiche
uniche, nel rispetto e nella valorizzazione del territorio e dei vitigni autoctoni di Marche e Abruzzo. Non manca la ricerca su alcuni tra i più rappresentativi vitigni i n t e r n a z i o n a l i c o m e C h a r d o n n a y , Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon e Merlot, per la creazione di vini innovativi da mettere a confronto con le più eccellenti produzioni mondiali. PORTONOVO ci attende in tutto il suo splendore, per goderci gli unici panorami costieri e per la visita tre cantine produttrici non solo di vino ma anche prodotti della gastronomia locale, dove potremmo godere dei prati e degustare i prodotti tipici locali di un laboratorio alimentare, come olio, cereali, legumi, biscotti pane e confetture, possibili anche da acquistare. Ammireremo circa 80 ettari ed il vigneto che si sviluppa dalla spiaggia di MEZZAVALLE sino a sotto IL POGGIO. L'ubicazione dei vigneti, sia per la vicinanza al mare, che per l'altitudine, è peculiare per il prodotto Rosso Conero Infatti questa combinazione, unita alla elevatissima presenza del calcare attivo presente nei terreni, si produce un vino ricco di mineralità e complessità.
tra vigneti e cantine (III parte) Ci godremo l’affascinante BAIA DI PORTONOVO ammirando i gioielli d’arte presenti: la Torre di Guardia, la chiesetta romanica di Santa Maria ed il F o r t i n o Napoleonico. Ci recheremo nel cuore del Parco naturale del Cónero e dell'area di produzione del rosso a denominazione d'origine. MONTEACUTO, dove il vitigno Montepulciano, diviene un rosso Conero tipico che si esprime ai livelli più alti. L’ accurata selezione delle uve in vigna oltre l’ammodernamento della bottaia in legno, sono gli ingredienti attraverso i quali il "Rosso Conero" ed il "dorico" che ne è una selezione, sono riusciti ad affermarsi,
ottenendo anche prestigiosi riconoscimenti. Da qua potremmo ammirare un tramonto spettacolare che ci farà chiudere meravigliosamente bene la giornata. Il pernottamento è previsto in una delle strutture ricettive convenzionate della Riviera del Conero: A l b e r g h i , B & B , a g r i t u r i s m o, strutture idonee per ogni esigenza. Durante la mattina successiva scopriremo i sentieri del Monte Conero, tra panorami e leggende . Nel pomeriggio visita facoltativa di C A M E R A N O SOTTERRANEA o GITA VIA MARE della RIVIERA DEL CONERO. Tempo a disposizione per attività balneari, relax e shopping.
