Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico


Name: Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico
Variety: 100% Gagliopoo
Region: Calabria
Country: Italy
Year: 209
Price: $14, sale -- $3.95
Winery Review:  Don’t let the pale garnet color fool you:  this is a substantial wine.  Aromas of red fruits and spice complement undertones of cranberries, wild berries, and plums.  On the palate, ripe tannins and good body make for an incredibly rich, yet easygoing red wine.  Pair this wine with sausage, spicy curry sauces, hot soppressata, and tandoori chicken.
My Review: This wine had scents of blackberry, cherry, and black pepper. The taste was not similar to the smell, which was odd. I tasted cranberries, which were overwhelming. The wine was, also, way too dry for me. I was not a fan of this wine. 
Food Pairing: None
