Ciró
Ciró is a DOC (or DOP, if you will) from the southwestern Italian region of Calabria; it is produced in the eastern province of Crotone. The overwhelming production of Ciró (90%) is red, made from the local Gaglioppo variety; there is a small amount of rosé and white produced (the white is made from Greco Bianco and Trebbiano).

Ciró is the best-known red wine of Calabria, and has a spicy, gutsy edge to it, with medium-weight tannins and moderate acidity. It is generally produced in a hearty style with forward fruit, making it ideal for pairing with rich pastas, game, red meats and peppers. (Wine/Appellations)
