Librandi Antonio e Nicodemo S.p.A. S.S. 106 – C.da S. Gennaro 88811 Cirò Marina (KR)
Critone is tangible proof that the Librandi family, known above all for its great ability to enhance the rich Calabrian ampelographic heritage, is in fact also capable of producing fabulous wines from international grape varieties. IGT Calabria, in fact, Critone is a white wine of great personality and freshness, the result of skilful processing of Chardonnay, for 90%, and Sauvignon Blanc for the remainder. Two grape varieties which, it must be said, have settled perfectly into the Librandi family's Calabrian estates and which, suitably processed and blended, give life to a wine that is fresh and savoury, at the same time deep and persistent. International taste, Calabrian soul. Therefore with an extra gear, deriving from a unique terroir, that of the Cirò area. Grapes harvested between the end of August and the first week of September, inert thermo-conditioned steel containers are used for vinification. The grapes are soft-pressed to begin the delicate phase of alcoholic fermentation. Then, at the end of the transformation, the wine matures first in steel and then in the bottle, before release. Excellent with hors d'oeuvres and fish-based first courses. Also perfect with fried food and slightly spicy dishes.
