Gaglioppo

Red wine

Gaglioppo is the backbone of Cirò, the signature red wine of Calabria in Italy's deep south. DNA studies point to Sangiovese as one of its parents. It's full-bodied, high in alcohol, and firmly tannic, needing real time in the bottle to soften into something smooth and complex.

Also known as Arvino, Gaglioppa.
