Lovelli Vino Rosso is an inviting Italian red that offers balance, brightness and broad appeal. Designed to be approachable, this smooth and juicy wine makes an excellent companion for everyday meals and casual get-togethers. With an ABV of 10.5%, it delivers generous flavour without overwhelming the palate, making it a smart choice for those seeking a lighter, fruit-forward red.
Crafted in the sun-drenched vineyards of southern Italy, Lovelli Vino Rosso is a testament to Puglia’s winemaking traditions. The region’s warm climate and coastal influence allow native grapes like Negroamaro and Sangiovese to flourish, producing wines that are ripe, supple and brimming with Mediterranean charm. Whether enjoyed lightly chilled on a summer evening or served at room temperature alongside food, this red offers a versatile and enjoyable experience for wine lovers of all kinds.
Producer Overview:
Lovelli is part of a modern generation of Italian winemakers focusing on quality and consistency without pretension. While relatively new on the export scene, the label has quickly become known for delivering flavourful, fruit-driven wines that reflect their regional roots. Produced in partnership with experienced growers in Puglia, Lovelli wines are aimed at casual wine drinkers seeking excellent value, food-friendly styles, and a taste of Italy’s vibrant viticultural heritage.
The Lovelli range is crafted with minimal intervention and a clear focus on drinkability. While there are no headline awards yet, the brand’s growing popularity across European markets is a sign of its broad appeal and easygoing charm.
Tasting Notes:

Food Pairings:
Lovelli Vino Rosso is an adaptable companion to a wide range of dishes. It’s excellent with pasta in tomato-based sauces, pizza with cured meats or roasted vegetables, and lighter meat dishes like grilled chicken or pork. Its fruit-forward character also complements vegetarian meals such as lentil stews, roasted aubergine, or chargrilled peppers. For cheese pairings, go for semi-hard styles like Asiago, mild Cheddar or even a young Gouda.
Thanks to its soft tannins and medium weight, it works beautifully year-round — from summer salads with balsamic glazes to hearty winter comfort food.
Serve Lovelli Vino Rosso slightly below room temperature, around 14–16°C, to enhance its juicy red fruit and keep the alcohol in balance. For best results, use a medium-sized red wine glass to allow the fruit aromas to open up. If you're sipping it in warmer weather, don’t be afraid to give it a quick 20-minute chill in the fridge — the fresh acidity and light body will shine through even more.
