Borgo di Colloredo 2003 Gironia Red (Biferno Rosso)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
Here’s a blend of Montepulciano (75%) and Aglianico (25%) with big, ripe intensity and polished tannins. Aromas include sweet cherry, blueberry and spicy cinnamon or vanilla. It feels big and bold in the mouth and would make a statement with lamb or beef.

Borgo di Colloredo 2001 Gironia Red (Biferno Rosso)
- $22
This blend of Montepulciano and Aglianico offers deep notes of resin, spice, plum, black fruit, cherry and root beer. The wine has a slightly raw quality with nervous tannins that are characteristic of both grape varieties but many years in the bottle have softened them.

Borgo di Colloredo 2007 Greco (Terra degli Osci)
- Editors' Choice
- $20
Here is an intensely fragrant Greco from Molise with notes of banana, peach, passion and exotic fruits backed by salt water taffy. The aromas keep coming and give this wine an extremely cheerful and upbeat personality. It is polished and smooth but it also offers density and texture.

- Online Exclusive
- $21
Made with Montepulciano and Aglianico grapes, this is a very fragrant and intense rosé with intact berry notes and a wonderfully full and vibrant personality. More berry flavors appear in the mouth and the wine offers a touch of sour almond on the close.

Borgo di Colloredo 2005 Aglianico (Terra degli Osci)

Borgo di Colloredo 2003 Aglianico (Terra degli Osci)

Borgo di Colloredo 2007 Gironia White (Biferno Bianco)
- Online Exclusive
- $21
Subtle complexity in the form of mature fruit and drying mineral helps to shape this wine (a blend of Trebbiano, Bombino and Malvasia). In the mouth, however, the wine’s bursting notes of sweet fruit make it anything but subtle. In fact, the wine is intense and generous.

Borgo di Colloredo 2007 Sangiovese (Terra degli Osci)
- $15
This Sangiovese from Molise opens with a vibrant, almost purplish hue, and segues into aromas of bright cherry, raspberry, blueberry and soda pop. The purity of the fruit is commendable: It tastes smooth, easy and has silky tannins.
