Description
Originating from the Greek words oxys (sharp) and moros (dull), Ossimoro is more than just a wine; it’s a paradox in a glass, a delicately dramatic game of contrasts.
Ossimoro, which is certified organic, unfiltered, and produced in small amounts, exhibits a profound regard for tradition and the natural world. Primitivo di Gioia del Colle and Aglianico are blended to create a wine that is both powerful and elegant. Following manual harvesting, the grapes undergo a brief maceration and soft pressing before being vinified in rotary fermenters. After a year of maturation, the wine’s dual nature is completely revealed.
You are drawn in by its striking scarlet hue, and the nose presents a complex blend of juicy red fruits and spices. Ossimoro’s soul—decisive and forceful, yet silky and seductive—is revealed on the palate. It’s a wine of harmony via conflict that subtly complexities the senses.
With 92 points from Veronelli, Slow Wine awards, and Decanter medals, Ossimoro is well-known throughout the years and represents harmony and individuality.
A wine that tells a tale in addition to serving as a meal companion.
