Cirò Rosso Classico is an iconic DOC designation from the Calabria wine region, located in southern Italy. This designation showcases the Gaglioppo grape variety, known for its powerful and structured wines. The vineyards in Cirò benefit from a Mediterranean climate, with hot and dry summers ideal for optimal grape ripening. The varied soils, including limestone and clay, add complexity and minerality to the wines.
Cirò Rosso Classico stands out with its deep ruby-red color and intense aromas of red fruits, spices, and sometimes a hint of tobacco. On the palate, they offer a perfect harmony between silky tannins and balanced acidity, making them excellent for aging. These wines are perfect for pairing with grilled meats, stews, or aged cheeses.
