Maioliche Dume Frappato
A Gorghi Tondi first. For the first time, one of the most famous varieties of Eastern Sicily enriches the Gorghi Tondi collection with Dumè; an intense and refreshing red, to be drunk with a cheerful and carefree company, in search of moments of pure joy. Excellent served with a chill!
Light ruby red color with violet reflections. An intense nose with fruity notes of blackberry, raspberry, and pomegranate; quite complex and fragrant. On the palate it is fresh, with good structure, as well as velvety and juicy. It pairs beautifully with eggplant parmigiana, lasagna with pesto, or oily fish.
