Flavor Profile
Domenico De Gregorio (known to friends and family as Mimmo) is the head winemaker at Sicily’s exciting Cantine Settesoli. If you’re a fan of rich, smooth southern Italian reds, you’re in for a real treat with his namesake release.
Founded in 1958 in Menfi, Cantine Settesoli prides itself on crafting top-quality wines from native grape varieties. The cooperative’s vineyards are certified organic, and they were the first co-op in all of Italy to receive the VIVA certification from the Italian Ministry for Environment, Land and Sea (a program that promotes eco-friendly and sustainable viticulture).
Mimmo has 30 years of winemaking experience, and it’s evident in his namesake red. A unique marriage of Syrah, Merlot and Sicilian native Perricone (prized for adding intense berry aromas and structure to blends), it won a Gilbert & Gaillard gold medal. Judges wrote:
“Beautiful nose showing a mix of smoky-oaky notes, anise and jammy red fruits in the background. The palate shows a velvety texture supported by intense oak flavors which delicately envelop the fruit.”
A great choice for an Italian-inspired feast. Secure your share today.
