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: Véraison
A phase in the vegetative cycle of the vine that takes place in summer, usually in August, when the grapes change colour from green to red (for reds) or yellow (for whites). This stage heralds the beginning of ripening.
