Fourth-generation Italian winemaker Daniele Malavasi crafted Manciata in honor of his mother, Ames. A passionate cook, she taught Daniele that “a little bit of this or a manciata generosa (generous handful) of that” can make all the difference in the kitchen—and in life.
Well, great winemaking shares many similarities with great cooking, and Daniele followed his mother’s tried-and-true approach while making this tribute wine. Giving local grape Ancellotta a beneficial manciata generosa of Petit Verdot, he made an already rich wine all the more deep, dark, and complex. The previous vintage was so successful, it scooped up a gold medal at China’s biggest (and most competitive) wine show. Since he used the same “recipe” for this new release, we’re certain it will be loved by judges, too.
You’re in for a glass that overflows with voluptuously dark and spicy fruit character, with a dense, smooth palate and vibrance that’ll have you pouring seconds. And maybe thirds. But be sure to pair with an equally robust meal, like a meaty ragù that’s been simmering all day or deep-dish pepperoni pizza.
This is the wine to have at your next big feast—order a case today!
