Terre Nobili

Terre Nobili works with Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio in Calabria, the southernmost region of mainland Italy. These indigenous grapes thrive in the region's Mediterranean climate, producing wines of structure and mineral character. The winery's portfolio centers on three expressions: Teodora, Ipazia, and Alarico—each a blend of the same two varieties, each rated by Wine Advocate. Nerello-based wines from Calabria tend toward dark fruit, savory tannins, and the kind of acidity that rewards food pairing. Terre Nobili's versions reflect the terroir of southern Italy's volcanic soils and warm growing conditions, where these grapes have deep roots.
