Callas,
the divine harmony that stands the test of time

Both Nabucco and Callas pay tribute to Parma's lyrical tradition, with its Teatro Regio hosting the legendary performances of Maria Callas. This Malvasia di Candia is named in her honour, reflecting their shared qualities: a pure expression, yet complex and full of character—just like the unmistakable voice of the Divine.

Callas exudes a wide array e aromassuch as violets and hawthorna a strong and defined personality, which remains impressed thanks to a wide range of aromas and a fresh and harmonious sip: the precise identity of Callas stands out even several years after the harvest.

[...] Among these, Callas '20 is without a doubt the most authentic and sincere: marked by notes of white fruit and aromatic herbs, it shows a dry palate with excellent persistence. - 3 BICCHIERI

Succosa e leggiadra la Barbera dei Colli di Parma ’19 con i suoi sentori di lampone; la bocca ha ritmo grazie a un tannino delicato e a un’acidità che regala solo freschezza.

 

Gambero Rosso 2022

It never disappoints expectations: impeccable in its notes of white flowers and citrus, the palate is rich and juicy, with a significant acidic backbone that promises great longevity and a pronounced minerality that enlivens the finish. Highly convincing.

 

Slow Wine 2020

Bright yellow with green reflections. A clear vegetal imprint recalling tomato leaf, with citrus touches and clover. Linear, with a sharp acidic impact that brings Granny Smith apple to the palate, complemented by a touch of softness. – 5 ACINI
