Pairing Red meats, aged cheeses, typical Campanian dishes
The Piedirosso Campania Sabbia Vulcanica IGT by Agnanum is born on the fertile volcanic hills of Campania, where the soil rich in volcanic sand gives the namesake grape an intense and unique minerality. This red wine, made from carefully cultivated Piedirosso grapes, releases aromas reminiscent of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and strawberries, accompanied by delicate floral and spicy notes.

On the palate, it is harmonious with an elegant structure, soft tannins, and a pleasant freshness that invites a long sip. The aging, carried out in small wooden barrels, gives the wine further complexity, enhancing the typical characteristics of the Campanian territory.

Ideal with white meat dishes, fresh cheeses, and mushroom-based courses, the Piedirosso Campania Sabbia Vulcanica IGT represents an excellence that tells the magic of the volcanic terroir in the glass.

Thanks to the skillful interpretation of Agnanum, it expresses with authenticity the soul of the grape variety and of Campania.
