Packaged with a white label, the Gianfranco Fino 2016 Negroamaro Jo offers large-scale aromas of jammy black fruit, dried cherry and black currant, with plenty of spice, tar and sweet rum cake. The bouquet peels back to reveal inky dark fruit, espresso, bitter chocolate and cherry liqueur. Because those aromas are so powerful on their own, I'd recommend pairing this wine with a more neutral dish, such as roasted chicken or pork. The lasting flavors from this wine will be hard to match. Aged in French barrique for nine months, some 3,000 bottles were made.

The 2013 Negroamaro Jo is a massive statement wine that deals an unforgettable blow to all the senses, eyes, nose and mouth. This Negroamaro is absolutely Baroque in personality with so many embellishments and exaggerations, it's almost difficult to know where to focus your attention. It presents an inky, impenetrable appearance followed by amazing aromatic intensity that is as wide reaching as its is penetrating. Jammy black fruit, rum cake, spice and blackberry pie are protagonists. There are oxidized or aldehydic tones of apple skin as well that seems to be a defining characteristic of Gianfranco Fino's wines. Pretty spice notes of cinnamon, espresso bean and toasted almond fill in the back. The wine is slightly sweet, but it also offers so much in terms of complexity, tannins and richness that the residual sugar feels very well integrated. It's hard to image what foods you could pair this wine with other than aged cheeses such as Pecorino or Stilton.
