Description
What kind of wine it is
I Mori by Ippolito 1845 is a red wine born from the union of Gaglioppo and Cabernet Sauvignon. This enveloping blend presents an intense ruby colour enriched with violet reflections. On the nose, it expresses a complex bouquet, characterised by notes of red fruits, vanilla and delicate balsamic hints. On the palate, it reveals a great structure, resulting warm and smooth. The refined tannins ensure a persistent finish, ideal for accompanying roasts and mature cheeses.
Where it comes from
This wine is produced in Cirò Marina, at the heart of the wine-growing region of Calabria. The production area enjoys ideal conditions that allow Gaglioppo to express an excellent territorial identity. The encounter with Cabernet Sauvignon creates a harmonious and balanced flavour profile. This well-defined geographical origin guarantees a clear recognisability, offering a sip that combines olfactory intensity and elegance on the palate.
How it is produced
The process begins in October with a careful manual harvest. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature to achieve precise extraction of aromas and colours. Ageing takes place in small French oak barrels, which impart elegant spicy notes to the wine. The subsequent final rest consolidates its aromatic complexity, resulting in a wine with a bold character, fully compatible with a vegan diet.
History and Curiosities
Produced in Cirò Marina by the historic Ippolito 1845 winery, I Mori 2022 is a prestigious Calabria IGT that celebrates the meeting of local tradition and international elegance. This enveloping vegan red combines the strength of Gaglioppo with the softness of Cabernet Sauvignon, from grapes hand-harvested in October. The 12-month ageing in French oak barrels enriches the palate with spicy and vanilla notes, offering a warm and balanced structure, ideal for accompanying roasts, mature cheeses and convivial occasions.
