Melissa DOC - Asylia Rosso - Librandi 2023

There are those who tell the story, tradition and passion with words; Cantina Librandi has chosen to do it through wine. In Cirò, a magnificent corner of Calabria, hard wines are born with a history behind them; it is here that Asylia is born, the freshest and most enjoyable interpretation of the typical Calabrian vines.

The harvest takes place at the end of September. The vinification is in thermo-conditioned steel, with delicate pressing of the grapes. Refinement is in steel, with a short stay in the bottle for a few months before being put on the market.

A wine that has an intense ruby red color in the glass. The olfactory sense is seduced by the enveloping scent of red-fleshed fruits that peep out one after the other; among these we find cherries, blueberries, blackberries and an orange aroma, which elegantly intersect with scents of eucalyptus and black pepper.

A drink that proves to be enveloping and well balanced on the palate right from the first sip. A red of orexcellent drinkability, with a tannin present but which in any case does not alter the balance of the sip which remains juicy and persistent until the end. A glass that at the table is excellent in combination with meat-based dishes and first courses with not too seasoned sauces.
