Piedirosso (Per'e Palummo) red

Piedirosso, which in recent years has made quite the qualitative leap, increasingly offered alone and no longer in the classic blend with Aglianico. Locally it is called Per’e palummo (foot of the dove) because of the flecks present on the berries, coloured red like those of a dove’s leg. Today it is a great protagonist in the provinces of Naples, Benevento, Caserata and Salerno. It has a medium-late maturation and never brings a large concentration of anthocyanins and therefore of colour in the glass. It is appreciated above all for a truly contagious fragrance of fruit, of small red fruits, and for its ability to show off its volcanic character in lightness and flavour. The drink is often contagious, a real jack of all trades when it comes to food pairings, equally shining with a pizza Margherita.(https://www.gamberorossointernational.com/news/wine-news/five-native-grape-varieties-we-are-ready-to-bet-on/?utm_term=28569+-+Five+native+grape+varieties+we+are+ready+to+bet+on&utm_campaign=NL+WEEKLY+ENG&utm_medium=email&utm_source=MagNews&utm_content=4140+-+2124+%282021-05-07%29)
