Tasting Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico


• Name: Librandi Ciro Rosso Classico
• Variety: Gaglioppo
• Region: Calabria 
• Country: Italy
• Year: 2010
• Price: $3.95
• Shop/wine critic/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 Italian wine is a nice red wine. The color was red/violet, not too dark. It smelled very nice, some fruit components and tannins. First when I tasted the wine, I could only taste the tannins. However, after a little while. The wine became smooth and light. It was very pleasant to drink this wine, I definitely recommend it to new drinkers.  
• I had this wine at a wine tasting.
