In the lands of Dionysus, the god of wine, vines, and mystical delirium, native grape varieties cannot be missing.


The history of winemaking in Calabria dates back to the Bruzi populations who colonized the Ionian lands. These same lands were referred to as "Enotria" by the Greeks in 750 BC. The old name for Calabria is therefore Enotria, a name that specifically refers to the beverage, translating to "Land of wine."


The Calabrese (Nero d'Avola) grape variety yields a red-ruby wine that is dry, high in alcohol content, appropriately acidic, full-bodied, with a neutral aroma and flavor. Single-varietal wines have proven to be suitable for aging in barrels, thanks to their delicate aromas and good aging potential.


Full, warm and persistent. Intense Red. Fruity, ample bouquet that recalls wild berries, cherries, black cherries, notes of vanilla.


Best paired with roasted and grilled meats, game and cheeses, braised meats and salami.


750ml | 14% ABV
