The wine region of Palizzi
Calabrian IGT from the southern Ionian coast (Reggio Calabria), altitude vineyards (150–650 m) on clays, at Italy's southern tip. Nerello (Mascalese and local Calabrese) as signature deep red with black cherry, blackberry, violet, spice and sunny Mediterranean character, full and structured palate. Autochthonous Castiglione and Negrazza as complements. Heroic ancestral vineyard of Greek terroirs, wines of personality and ageing potential.
The wine region of Calabria
Italy's far south between the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas, a millennia-old tradition (Greek "Oenotria"). Emblematic Gaglioppo (the "black prince"): sun-drenched reds with signature notes of black cherry, candied plum, garrigue, tobacco, spice and balsamic notes, firm tannins — peaking at Ciro DOC on the Ionian coast. Also fleshy Magliocco, dense Nerello, Greco Bianco in a fresh, almondy white, ample Mantonico. Hot Mediterranean climate, volcanic and clay-sandy soils.
The word of the wine: Extra-dry
Champagne with between 12 and 20 grams of sugar (see dosage liqueur).
