A vivid expression of Sicily’s red soils and ancient winemaking traditions, Pithos Rosso 2023 is a blend of Nero d’Avola and Frappato, fermented and aged exclusively in clay amphorae. This unique ageing method imparts an earthy purity and delicate oxidative complexity to the wine, reflecting COS’s dedication to natural, minimal-intervention winemaking.
The nose opens with aromas of dried cherry, redcurrant, and wild herbs, supported by subtle notes of leather, spice, and a mineral undertone. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied, with fresh acidity, soft tannins, and a vibrant, savoury finish that lingers with hints of smoke and saline freshness.
Produced by Azienda Agricola COS, pioneers of biodynamic viticulture in Sicily since 1980, Pithos Rosso embodies the estate’s philosophy of blending ancient techniques with modern precision to let the land and its grapes speak for themselves.
Perfect with grilled meats, aubergine parmigiana, or mushroom risotto, this is a red that rewards both contemplation and casual enjoyment.
