Cosenza, Calabria

Caparra & Siciliani

Mastrogiurato Calabria Rosso

First dry red wine from Calabria. 70% Gaglioppo (Greek origin) 30% Greco Nero. Intriguing savoury nose, some herbal elements leading to a less full bodied wine than expected and of course excellent with pasta and wild boar. Love these hot climate Southern Italian wines like this and also Primitivo from Puglia. 2010 vintage. — 9 years ago

My first experience with Gaglioppo grapes. Awesome fruit. Mild taste. Prunes & plumes. Hints of tobacco. Off red in color; almost a brown. Well balanced. Long beautiful finish. Can't wait to explore more Calabrian wines! — 10 years ago
