Segno Librandi Rosso Classico

Cirò Rosso Classico DOC bottle image

Wine Description

This wine is made entirely from Gaglioppo, the most important variety from the heart of the Cirò appellation. Ionian sea breezes and higher elevations cool these southern vineyards, effectively slowing the ripening process. Cirò Rosso is fermented and aged for eight months in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's fresh, youthful character.
