Di Majo Norante Sangiovese, Campomarino, Molise, Italy

Di Majo Norante has been making wine from grapes ever since 19th century, as is evidenced by the old cellars underneath the square and in the old family building at Campomarino, where the Giro will be around on the 15th of May.

Made from 100% Sangiovese hand-harvested in October, this wine is aged in stainless steel and large oak barrels for six months to achieve greater smoothness and softness while preserving the supple fruit-forward characteristics of Sangiovese. Bright red color, cherry aroma with nuances of meditteranean shrubs and leather.

On the palate, this wine is dry and mellow with smooth tannins that make for a crowd-pleasing, easy-to-drink red wine.

Pair this wine with antipasti, Bolognese sauces, game, and ripe cheeses.
