Elios Glou Glou Rosso 2023 Review

If you come across a bottle that boasts the term “Glou Glou” on the label, it’s pretty safe to assume it will be a chillable red. And this Nerello Mascalese from Sicily certainly fits the bill. The nose offers Concord grape juice and black cherry aromas and the palate brings a mix of ripe cherry, cranberry, and blood orange flavors. There’s a channel of minerality coursing through the rich fruit notes, framed by Italy’s typical high acidity and grippy tannins. Lean into that vibe and enjoy this wine with a fresh tomato-based pasta dish.
