Di Majo Norante Terre Degli Osci Sangiovese 2019 750 ML

Deep ruby-red in color, aromas of baked plums and black fruits complement undertones of cassis, tobacco leaf, leather, and sweet spice. On the palate, rich tannins and good acidity make for a mouthwatering wine with good aging potential.\n \n Producer Information\n Di Majo Norante is an Italian wine producer situated in Molise. It was founded by the Di Majo family in the early 1800s, and specializes in the regional wines of Molise and some of its key subregions – Biferno, Tintilia del Molise and Terre degli Osci. The estate comprises 85 hectares (210 acres) of vineyards planted to a range of white grape varieties including Falanghina, Greco Bianco, Bombino Bianco and Moscato, as well as several red wine grape varieties such as Montepulciano, Sangiovese, Tintilia and Aglianico. The vineyards are generally planted on sandy soils and are cultivated with organic agricultural methods using organic fertilizers and parasite control. The Di Majo Norante portfolio is focused predominantly on Molise DOC-classified wines, including the estate's flagship red wine, Don Luigi. This Riserva label is made from a blend of 90 percent Montepulciano and 10 percent Aglianico grapes grown on a six-hectare (15-acre) vineyard plot with vines that average over 15 years old. The Don Luigi wine is macerated in contact with its lees for one month and then aged for 12 months in oak barriques, and spends another six months in bottle before release. In addition to its regional still red and white wines, Di Majo Norante also produces a rosé, spumante and sweet Moscato-based wine.
