Vinification of the Statti Cauro Calabria

This balanced red wine from Italy is made from the Magliocco, Cabernet Sauvignon and Gaglioppo grape varieties. The Cauro Calabria is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this Italian wine exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of Old World wines. After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly transported to the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in large oak barrels at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by ageing on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.

Recommendation for the Cauro Calabria from Statti
