For the first year this label is 100% Mantonico
Indeed i am truly loving this local variety
It grows often quite high uphill, even 5-600 metres over sea level
It results a bit aromatic, quite fullish to be a wine that is kind of considered a entry level wine
I guess it stays on the lees for a bit
However the result is delicious, quite mineral, very easy drinking and persistent
I am very curious to see how this could age for a couple of years
Btw i paid it 7.50 euros🤫🤫🤫 — 2 years ago

Blend of 40% Gaglioppo, 40% Greco Nero and 20% Magliocco, medium Ruby red color with aromas of red and black fruits with gentle spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with black pepper spice. Chalky tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and mineral notes. — 6 months ago

8.9

Unfiltered, not clarified, spontaneous fermentation
Golden colour
Quite oxidative nose
Almondy, the fruit is kind of baked, perhaps an apple tart, a bit of spices and honeyed
It's a bit warm with its 14.5%
50/50 mantonico and malvasia
It could improve, but i am not convinced
It feels like i wanna be, but i am not — 2 years ago

65% guarnaccia bianca 35% mantonico bianco
I am going hard local and i must admit i am enjoying it even though i know already i will never find gold in the glass
A touch aromatic perhaps, granny smith apple, sage, thyme, iodine.
Not elegant maybe, but definitely enjoyable
Fairly long
I am happy with my little discoveries
I am meeting young guys that believe in the territory
With taralli and eggplant pure with chilli it was spot on — 3 years ago

9.0

Orange wine with a healthy dose of sediment. This is labeled 2021. All the websites say that it’s a blend of Malvasia and Mantonico with 4 days of skin contact, but this bottle is labeled 100% Mantonico and 5 days of skin contact. It’s acidic and dry, almost tannic. Mild flavors of citrus peel, peach, vanilla, and a little nutty. — 2 years ago

I got told Mantonico( this is 100% mantonico)was the most interesting white variety in Calabria and i must agree
It has an intense nose of honey, fruit and mineral
It has its balance and a good length
Potential to age a few years easily
Good freshness
Label only produced in 2019 in perhaps a couple of thousands of bottles
I'd buy this again for sure — 2 years ago

Orange zest, a touch of butterscotch, lovely funkiness. Deep golden/orange color, lots of sticky lilies and a very Italian character. — 8 years ago
