Tasting- Librandi Ciro Variety: Rosso Classico (red)-

Name: Librandi Ciro
Variety: Rosso Classico
Region: N/A
Country: Italy
Year: N/A
Price:$14

Shop/wine critic/winery review: Don’t let the pale garnet color fool you:  this is a substantial wine.  Aromas of red fruits and spice complement undertones of cranberries, wild berries, and plums.  On the palate, ripe tannins and good body make for an incredibly rich, yet easygoing red wine.  Pair this wine with sausage, spicy curry sauces, hot soppressata, and tandoori chicken.




My review: The smell is very light for a red, there’s a bit of smoke and it’s pretty dry on the nose. There’s not much taste either. It’s pretty much just the light nose liquefied, dry, small amount of smokey. There aren’t detectable tannins. It’s not bad, doesn’t make me gag like many reds, but it’s certainly not good and it’s definitely boring.

CONCLUSION: Wouldn’t drink again.


Not tasted with food
