  June 16, 2020 - I love a darker Rosé, or Rosato I should say, this is made from Gaglioppo, a grape grown in several Italian regions but most notably in Calabria; Italy’s ‘toe’. This one’s made from organic grapes and hails from Ciró, on the eastern side and is the heartland of Calabrian Gaglioppo.
  Fairly simple, and slightly confected, but wonderfully summery, with aromas and flavours of rose, strawberry, raspberry and red plum. Straddling the dry / off dry fence, with medium (12.5%) alcohol (I would have preferred a little dryer but that would have bumped up the alcohol by at least +1%), medium acidity +, it’s medium bodied with medium + intensity and a medium finish. Good job!
