The wine region of Cirò
Calabria DOC at the foot of the Sila, one of the world's oldest named wines (ancient Krimisa offered to Olympic victors). Gaglioppo signature native red: structured and sun-drenched with signature notes of black cherry, blackberry, garrigue, Mediterranean herbs, leather and spice hint, firm tannins and warm palate — garnet hue, sustained alcohol, ageworthy. Rare Greco Bianco white (citrus, flowers). Mediterranean climate, Ionian breezes.
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: Animal
Generic smell of aromatic families reminiscent of fur, game, musk, civet, amber and sometimes unpleasant smells of wet hair. The old books on tasting give as an example of animal aroma the belly of hare.
