More questions
With a bright ruby red color, this Cirò Rosso DOC presents a frank, direct bouquet, where ripe red fruits and wild berry notes emerge, accompanied by balsamic hints and light spicy nuances. On the nose there are also earthy tones and a touch of black pepper, without excess; the whole remains clean and focused, with good definition of the aromas that invites tasting.
On the palate it shows a medium-full body, present but well-integrated tannins and balanced acidity that supports drinkability; the finish is savory and persistent with fruity and spicy echoes. The designation 'Riserva' on the label indicates a version intended for those seeking greater structure and depth compared to the base version. It pairs with roasts, grilled meats and aged cheeses; early opening and service around 16–18 °C are recommended to appreciate its complexity and freshness. In the glass a measured concentration and a smooth tannic texture are evident, which facilitate pairing with flavorful dishes. A short decantation helps aromatic opening.

The winery
Cantine Vincenzo Ippolito (Ippolito 1845)
CalabriaItaly
Cantine Vincenzo Ippolito (Ippolito 1845) is the historic winery in Cirò Marina (KR), founded in 1845; it produces Calabrian wines that showcase local grape varieties. Its range includes the rosé "Pescanera" (Calabria IGT) made from Greco Nero.
The story
Founded in 1845 by Vincenzo Ippolito in Cirò Marina, the estate has remained family-run for generations; over the decades it adopted modern winemaking techniques (cellars, wooden casks) and began bottling and exporting, becoming a historic presence in Calabrian wine.
Production philosophy
Promotion of local grape varieties (e.g. Gaglioppo, Greco Nero), protection of the land, respect for traditions and biodiversity; in recent years the estate has undertaken renewal and sustainability initiatives in vineyard and cellar.
Terroir and vineyards
Cirò Marina (province of Crotone, Calabria) — coastal vineyards in the best sites, influenced by the sea and planted on predominantly clay-limestone soils.
