Vini di Giovanni, Ceresia Rosso 2024 ELITE There's a reason people losePlace: Umbria, Italy Grape: Ciliegolo Vibe: Bright A new bottling from Gio in 2024, it was originally destined to be the base wine for the Ciliegiozzo fizz, but needs must and we instead have a vibrant, crunchy still red. A short maceration with no stems, this is all about the wild strawberry, watermelon and alpine herbal spicey stuff. I had this in situ with house cured salumi, a combination I still dream about and can heartily recommend. ABV: 12%
