Sublime southern Italian rosato from a small producer in Calabria! Calabretta Ciro rosato is quite refreshing with a touch of earth and blood orange resting on a lean frame. Cataldo Calabretta is a small producer located in the heart of the Ciro Marina, in eastern Calabria. After graduating from wine school in Milan, Cataldo returned home to gain experience working the ancient bush vines of Ciro. His own project began in 2012. He works vines organically with targeted biodynamic preparation to help with biodiversity. He is dedicated to the native grapes of Calabria such as Gaglioppo, Greco Bianco and Ansonica. This is his Ciro Rosato produced from 100% Groppello grapes. It undergoes a 12-hour maceration before aging in steel tanks to preserve the fruit.
