Eventus is the pure pleasure of fine drinking and can be enjoyed alone while relaxing, or to accompany any meal, as it pairs beautifully with traditional and creative cuisines. An elegant red from a careful selection of soils best suited to cultivate the vines of the Mediterranean basin.
Deep red in colour with purple hints; obvious scents of ripe fruit and deep notes of blackberry and cherry, as well as candied fruit and jam, coming together within a bouquet of spices and vanilla. An ample, warm and rotund taste that balances perfectly with the perfect level of soft tannins and flavour. The final is long and fruity, with a pleasing aftertaste of spicy fruits.

Curious fact
The IGT demonination is a young name in terms of time (it was introduced in 1992), but it has a series of specific territorial features of wines with a consolidated tradition. Tradition that, at the table, offers us the exquisite flavours of the past: delicious, unique and full of evocative notes. This is the case of the Exclusive Gold Label Rosato IGT Puglia. An enological heritage, which is the fruit of experience and a constant search for quality, from the vineyard to the glass.
Andrea Vino Rosso
Wine, for me is also the silence of the winery: for this Winemaker's Choice Rosso there were moments when only the echo of the steps filled the space between the barrels, my breath was the only soundtrack to the maturing of my wine. It takes passion. When you love what you do, it comes naturally. Sometimes it takes your breath away, it makes you experience emotions with an overwhelming intensity. I personally chose the vines for this blend, inspired by the sensations of a torrid summer inside and outside the wine cellar. I followed step by step, one wine tasting after another. When I realized that it was ready to bottled, I felt a strange feeling of jealousy, as if faced with a painful but necessary detachment. At that moment, while I was tasting the wine in the dim light, I understood that it was ready. Wine is emotion. Mine? Mine is a passion to be shared.
Andrea, Wine Maker Giordano
Like a mirror from a fairy tale, the red of the chromatic texture has purple veins and reflects the light, creating changeable and fascinating patterns. The red fruits, raspberry and marasca, emerge through a full and expressive smell: the vanilla, distant and suggestive, peeps through. On the palate it is harmonious and full-bodied, a velvety with a distinguished aftertaste. You can catch clear traces of chocolate and vanilla.
Vinification
Grapes and vines are my everyday life. I see sprouting plants, budding flowers, growing fruit, maturing and reaching the perfect moment for the harvest. At harvest time, I watch over the whole process: mine is a conductor's job, every aspect is an instrument which must play the right notes to produce the perfect harmony. Each variety has its own voice: if in the denominations certain tones are crystallized, a blend allows you to add your own, shaping a wine that has an unusual, new character. For the Andrea Vino Rosso, I chose the tools that I thought best suited to orchestrate the taste I had in mind. After the careful selection of the grapes, after fermentation, after the first time in the tank, I made the vines talk in the way I thought best, giving this red a pinch of my personality. The refinement did the rest, in the comfortable setting of the Giordano wineries. And there, this wine matured, taking on a part of me during our silent dialogues.
Tips
The search for something new is the basis of constant personal growth. We talked a lot about the Winemaker’s Choice line. We were asked to come out of the shadows, not only to put faces to those who, behind the scenes, make Giordano wines, but also to offer a personal interpretation of the wine according to each of us. This Red wants to be my business card, it is a wine which conquers me. I hope I can break through to your heart, just as it has broken through into mine.
