About This Wine


Tifosi

Vino Rosso

Picture the Italian countryside: herb-scented breezes, swaying grasses and grape leaves, rolling hills that slope down into the ocean. The beauty of the environment feeds into the experience of wine drinking. With the Tifosi Vino Rosso, it’s easy to slip into a reverie. Made from 100% Nero d'Avola grapes from Sicily, the notes of clove and leather give an earthy nuance to the wine and support the bolder flavors of raspberry and pomegranate. We have loved this wine not only with classic Italian pairings, but with heartier meat-based dishes: oxtail soup, barbecue, and bacon. Judges love it too! It took home 91 Points and a Gold medal from the 2019 Toast of the Coast Wine Competition, and a Silver medal at the 2019 Hilton Head Island Wine and Food International Wine Competition!

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.
