Cristo Di Campobello - C.DC. Rosso IGP

The diverse peoples that set up a common home here weave a seamless mythological tapestry. The theme of this bottle is the unveiling of Sicily, of the Agrigento Province, in the inextricable synthesis of our red grapes.

The Sicilian Veil is hidden knowledge, a secret, creation, protection, revelation, illumination. In 2008, a mere 2,008 C'D'C' label-veils were woven on the Sicilian mill. The Sicilian veil is removed.

ROBERT PARKER POINTS 88 Wine Advocate 28th Dec 2018 by Monica Larner : 
This is a well-priced, entry-level wine from Baglio del Cristo di Campobello. The 2017 C'D'C' Rosso is rich and plump with lots of primary fruit framed by sweet spice. The blend consists of equal parts Nero d'Avola, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah (that just sees a brief six months in steel tanks). Drink this wine with your favorite pizza within the next two years. Some 120,112 bottles were produced. Drink date 2018-2022
