Statti 2005 Arvino Red (Calabria)

Country: Italy / Arvino
Variety: Red Blend Southern Italy
Winery: Statti / Calabria

Here’s a “super Calabrese” blend of Gaglioppo and Cabernet that delivers spicy notes of clove, tobacco, plum, black cherry and light licorice shadings. Because Gaglioppo is naturally light and fragrant, those green, vegetal Cabernet notes really come through.
