Dioniso is a Recioto of velvety sweetness and savoury grip. Ripe berry fruit gives it generosity, while liquorice adds a darker depth from the first sip.
Full and enveloping, it carries concentrated fruit across the whole palate. Sweetness remains vivid through the wine’s richness, while a savoury undertow draws it into a deep, composed close.
Deep ruby red with purple reflections.
Ripe cherry, strawberry, blackberry and plum fill the bouquet, followed by dried fruit and warm spice.
Full and velvety on the palate, Dioniso carries bright acidity through its sweetness. Soft tannins give the fruit a tactile outline, and black cherry remains clear through the centre.
As the wine opens, a fine cocoa note develops beneath the fruit. The finish is long, with dried cherry, cocoa and warm spice taking on an increasingly savoury cast.
Serve Dioniso with aged Gorgonzola, flourless dark-chocolate cake with sour cherries, sbrisolona, walnut tart or roasted figs with mascarpone. It can also close the meal on its own.
Serve Dioniso in a small, tulip-shaped wine glass and allow it to open naturally in the glass.
Serve at 15–16°C.
