Calabria At a Glance

Region Name Calabria

Calabria is a non-industrial rural mountainous region. Its economy is dependent on cereals, citrus, and particularly olives, with a per-capita income less than half the national average. Called Enotria by the Greeks in pre-Roma times for its illustrious vinous past, today viticulture and winemaking are far from the vital industries they once were and account for a tiny proportion of land use.

  • Score: 90 Vintage 2021 Wine Enthusiast eathery, earthy aromas stand up against the juicy, honeyed white flower and stone fruit notes on the nose before the palate adds tart green apple and great mineral depth. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 89 Vintage 2021 Vinous Media he 2021 Bianco Lamezia, an equal parts blend of Greco and Malvasia, opens with a peppery and dusty blend of ripe orchard fruits. It's soft and round with a buzz of citrus-infused acidity that adds traction. Crisp apple and apricot tones cascade throughout. It finishes long, potent and remarkably fresh as candied lime hints fade. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 89 Vintage 2021 Wine Spectator A creamy white, with hints of lychee, pink grapefruit sorbet, jasmine and apricot set in a juicy, light-bodied frame.

  • Score: 88 Vintage 2020 Vinous Media Sweet pear, dusty florals and hints of incense lift up from the 2020 Bianco. It’s soft upon entry, then gains a more tactile feel as a mix of minerals and candied lime washes across the palate. This tapers off, buzzing with residual acids, to a hint of green tropical citrus. The Lamezia is an equal-parts blend of Greco and Mantonico. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
