CICIPI’ 2014
Gianfranco’s Cicipì, a words pun on the Communist party (CCP) and a birdìs song, is a lisergically transcendent experience of a red natural wine. It’s 100% Cannonau from a selection of old vines at over 700m of altitude, pruned so as to protect them from excessive sunlight. Gianfranco’s dream vision for this: “Robin hood riding a horse and speeding through the forest, trampling over blackberry bushes, the same bushes he will later use to hide a bottle of Cabernet Franc”. Ripe boysenberries with liquorice, mint and bitter almonds, wild gamey notes of caramelised wild boar with dark cocoa and smoked tamarind
