June 28, 2015 - Aglianico, Piedirosso and Sciascionna varieties. Harvested, destemmed, followed by several days of skin contact and a shortened fermentation produce this lightly fizzy red. No use of carbonic maceration, as in Beaujolais Nouveau. The alcohol is generally 10-12 percent. Fresh, frothy and appealing, the neapolitan "go to" vino for pasta and pizza. Unlike lambrusco minimal residual sugar. Quite delicious and round and with just enough fizz to make a very primary grapey wine interesting and go well with the bold flavors of Campania. Done to perfection by Cantina Grotta del Sole.
