If you’re looking for something different in a red wine for summer, Giome from CaMaiol could be the ticket. This eclectic blend of indigenous grapes – groppello, marzemino, barbera and sangiovese – produced a 2016 Giome that is light-bodied but delicious, showing red fruits, hints of savory herbs, anise and a thread of minerality that becomes more pronounced as the wine opens up with a bit of aeration.
