Cirò Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva 2019, Cataldo Calabretta
Character and nobility. The 2019 vintage expresses a complex bouquet: maraschino cherry, bitter orange zest, liquorice, and a salty hint of Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, it is taut, with a dense and vibrant tannic texture balanced by juicy fruit and a mineral finish reminiscent of flint. TECHNICAL PROFILE · Producer: Cataldo Calabretta · Origin: Italia · Blend: 100% Gaglioppo · Denomination: Cirò DOC Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva · ABV:14% · Vintage: 2019 SERVICE GUIDE · Serving Suggestion: This wine loves oxygen; uncork at least one hour before serving. Despite being a "Riserva," the use of wood is expertly avoided (it ages in lined concrete tanks), keeping the wine incredibly clean and fruit-forward. · Glass: Large glass . · Temperature: 18°C. FOOD PAIRINGS · Structured Calabrian cuisine: Baked pasta , goat stew, grilled red meats, or aged cheeses like Pecorino Crotonese. Surprisingly good with spicy or chili-rich dishes.
