Coming from Puglia region, 3 Passo Rosso is made from Negroamaro & Sangiovese grapes. This organic wine has its name derived from the 3 steps required to produce it:
1. Partial Appassimento (grape drying) to get more concentrated fruit flavours
2. Over pumping of the must in a tank at a cold temperature to extract sweet tannins and dark colour
3. Ageing in oak to enhance smoothness and longevity.
2016 Ceilo 3 Passo Rosso is a deep red with garnet notes. Intense and complex bouquet with fruity notes of plum and jam and spicy tertiary hints reminiscent of vanilla and licorice. The palate is intense, with great structure, softness and a long finish. 3 Passo is a muscular wine, unique for its complexity and harmony. Drink it with flavourful first meals or red meats.
Deepish red colour with a tint of purple in the rim. The bouquet is ripe and attractive, with dark fruits and chocolate, tobacco, spices and a trace of blackberry. In the mouth, it’s full-bodied and rich, firm and balanced, with very good flavour and extract and textural interest. A generous, full-bodied red wine. Long carry.
