| Community Tasting Notes (average 89.8 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 4 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by TannicBeast on 11/22/2022 & rated 89 points: Italian Wine Scholar Class at the Texas Wine School. 100% Piedirosso. Med ruby. Med intensity tart red cherries and raspberries, tart red plum, smoke, tar and a slightly stemmy note. Reminiscent of Beaujolais. Dry, with med+ acidity, med tannins and alcohol (12.5%). The palate is consistent with the nose but also exhibits a pleasant savory minerality and a slightly bitter finish. This wine does not see any oak, but has an inherent smokiness due to the varietal and/or the growing conditions on volcanic soil. It is light to medium (-) bodied and is great w/ food. It is drinking well now and should continue to show well for several more years.

(659 views) | | Tasted by Tpairing on 4/10/2022 & rated 90 points: I grade this wine high- normally a low level sipper this winery produces the top end. There are plums and fruit juice , soft tannins with some mushrooms. Versace in food pairing due to low alcohol. Tonight with spaghettini in tomato , basil sauce with arugula. (665 views) |

| Mastroberardino Producer websitePiedirossoPiedirosso is an ancient, black-skinned grape variety found throughout Campania, Italy.
Single-variety wines made from Piedirosso tend to be deep ruby in color and full bodied with soft tannins. Typical flavors in these wines include plum, cherry and brambly wild berry fruit. More complex characteristics such as espresso, mushroom and damp earth are exhibited in the better examples.
A minerally, almost salty characteristic can be found in many Piedirosso wines. This can in part be attributed to the volcanic soils in which the grape thrives.Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorCampania Region Website (ItalianMade.com)
