Sìdero Rosso Classico
The everyday bottle — which is the hardest kind to get right.
Tasting
Gaglioppo is not a grape you drink with your eyes: pale ruby, almost see-through at the rim, and anyone expecting something black is caught off guard. Then the nose arrives — blood orange, dried oregano, wet earth after the first August storm — and the tannin, fine but there, holding it together without drying you out.
