Ancient Grape. Modern Energy. Bold Character.
From the volcanic hills of Cori, Lelio is a striking red made from Nero Buono, an ancient variety once nearly forgotten. Organically grown and expertly vinified, this wine captures the full character of Lazio’s native terroir — dark, expressive, and full of life.
Aged partly in French oak and partly in stainless steel, Lelio walks the line between structure and freshness. Rich fruit, wild spice, and a whisper of smoke make it a fascinating alternative for red wine lovers in Ireland who crave something beyond the usual.
