About This Wine

Lupo Ridere

Vino Rosso

Wine can transport an enthusiast to new and exciting places. Just by studying the wine, you can experience what daily life is like in a place you have never been. The way that the weather and soils come together to create a wine is a beautiful expression of place, or terroir. The Lupo Ridere Vino Rosso is a picture into Italian life, and it’s easy to find yourself dreaming of a terrace in Sicily to enjoy it on. The complexity of this 100% Nero d'Avola wine—red fruits mingling with earthy notes followed by a balanced and smooth finish— is divine. We’ve loved it with hearty meals. Pairing with game meat like venison or even a leg of lamb will bring out the fruit characteristics in the wine. It’s the perfect accompaniment to a decadent meal. Judges love it too. It took home 92 Points and a Gold Medal at the 2019 International Eastern Wine Competition and the 2019 Critics Challenge!

Wine Region

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.
