As of 2017, the famous Terra di Lavoro, one of Campania's best-loved wines in the world (at least judging by the number of awards and rave reviews it has received over the years) has a 'younger brother'. It is this Terra di Rosso, Campania IGT that comes from a pure processing of Piedirosso grapes, the surplus part compared to that harvested for the Terra di Lavoro blend, in excellent vintages. Volcanic soils and vines aged between 22 and 24 years guarantee super high quality. Harvesting is carried out by hand at the beginning of October. Vinification is traditional, with a long maceration phase that continues for about 20 days. Maturation takes place in new Allier and Never barrels and lasts for no less than 8 months. Not too deep ruby red, Terra di Rosso has a rich bouquet, with fruity notes of cherry, currant, blackberry, strawberry, raspberry and blueberry, followed by hints of violet, geranium, lavender and Mediterranean scrub. In the mouth it is fresh, but also soft and elegant. Pleasantly tannic, it is an extremely fine red wine that can also be paired with moderately delicate dishes such as fish soup or, for lovers of traditional recipes, even with a tasty aubergine parmigiana.
