Sannazzaro

2010 Molise Red Blend

The Antonio Valerio Srl Sannazzaro is a delightful red blend from the picturesque region of Molise, showcasing the unique character and terroir of this lesser-known Italian area. This vintage, crafted in 2010, offers a vibrant red color that entices the eye, while the nose is filled with an aromatic bouquet of dark fruits, herbs, and subtle spice. On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied, striking a harmonious balance between its lively acidity and notable tannins, resulting in a structured yet approachable mouthfeel. The fruit intensity is pronounced, delivering lush flavors of ripe cherry and blackberry complemented by hints of earthy undertones. This full-bodied wine is pleasantly dry, making it a fantastic pairing for a variety of hearty dishes, from grilled meats to rich pasta sauces. Whether enjoyed now or aged further, the Antonio Valerio Srl Sannazzaro promises a flavorful journey through the rustic charm of Molise.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
