Product Notes

The Librandi Duca Sanfelice Cirò Classico Superiore Riserva is an exquisite Italian red wine produced from Gaglioppo grapes grown in the celebrated Cirò region. This vintage is a seamless marriage of powerful flavours and grace. A rich garnet in colour, it unfurls a bouquet of ripe cherries, sweet spices, and hints of liquorice on the nose. On the palate, it presents a lovely balance of acidity and tannins, transitioning into a lengthy, elegant finish. This is a wine of true elegance and complexity, perfect for pairing alongside robust meat dishes, particularly lamb.

Tasting Notes

Our best Gaglioppo originating from old head-trained vines of the Cirò DOC. This wine tells the story of its territory and is steeped in tradition.
