Ciliegiolo
Ciliegiolo is a red wine grape that is primarily grown in Italy, particularly in the regions of Tuscany and Umbria. This grape is known for producing wines with a vibrant and intense flavor profile.
Ciliegiolo grapes are small and dark, resembling cherries, which is where the grape gets its name. The wines made from Ciliegiolo grapes are typically medium-bodied with a deep ruby color. They are known for their aromatic qualities, often displaying notes of red fruits such as cherries and raspberries, as well as hints of spice and earthiness.
Tuscany, in particular, is renowned for its Ciliegiolo wines, where it is often blended with other grape varieties such as Sangiovese.
