Librandi, Greco, Ciro, Calabria, Italy
- 100% Greco from Ciro, a region in Calabria, Italy.
- Greco is an ancient white grape that most likely originiated in Greece, hence the name. It is not related to the more widely known grape, Greco di tufo.
- Ciro is located in Calabria, in southern Italy. It is one of the oldest wine making regions in the world.
- Tasting Notes: This is a cool white wine with a unique mouth feel and crowd pleasing tasting notes. This wine starts out crisp and clean, but finishes on the fuller side. The texture of the wine is mouth filling and almost tannic, though there are no tannins in this wine. Notes of overripe pear and candied stone fruit dominate the palate, balanced by subtle notes of white flowers and minerality. Super interesting, funky wine that is still extremely easy to drink. Pair this wine with spicier foods.
