Azienda Agricola Di Majo Norante is located to the north of the Gargano in Molise on the estate of the Marquees Norante of Santa Cristina. Since the 1800’s, its ancestors have dedicated themselves to vine cultivation (ancient wine cellars are located under the main town square and the old palace in Campomarino). In 1968, a modern canteen was constructed, along with the first replanted vines in the Ramitello zone. This zone has northeastern exposure, constant summer breezes, a light limestone soil, and a slope toward the Scabolone and Madonna Grande valleys, combining to create a very favorable grape growing environment.
Di Majo Norante uses only estate grown grapes, cultivated without the use of chemical or synthetic additives, yielding a product that can be considered “biological”. Passion and love for the grapes are combined with the most advanced technology in farming methods and production facilities.
“Ramitello has enjoyed its own cult following over the years. The 2012 Molise Rosso Ramitello (a blend of Montepulciano and Aglianico) is a delicious expression with a balanced approach that puts just as much emphasis on intensity as it does elegance. The bouquet reveals dark fruit tones with spice and lingering leather at the back. The mouthfeel is reinforced by firm tannic structure and bright acidity.” – Monica Larner, September 2015
