Tasting notes

Cabernet Sauvignon at 420-470 meters in inland Campania produces something quite different from Bordeaux or Napa: the fruit is red and bright rather than dark, with a juicy, warm texture and no heaviness. The zero-sulfite, native-yeast approach keeps it lively and direct.

Supersannios is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Canlibero's biodynamically farmed vineyards in Torrecuso, in the Sannio Beneventano area of Benevento province, Campania. The vines, originally planted by Ennio Romano's father-in-law and previously sold to the local cooperative, sit at 420 to 470 meters above sea level on clayey and rocky soils. The wine is bottled under the Beneventano IGT classification.

Fermentation is spontaneous with native yeasts in open vats, with approximately 18 days of maceration on the skins. The wine then ages for 9 months in stainless steel, followed by at least 2 months in bottle. No filtration, no fining, and no sulfites are added at any stage.

In the glass, Supersannios is a deep ruby red. The nose leads with red berry fruit and spice. On the palate it is warm, juicy, and full-flavored with good length. It is a medium-bodied wine with enough structure to hold up to food but easy enough to drink on its own.

Works well with grilled or roasted meats, braised lamb, and pasta with meat-based sauces like a sheep ragu. Aged Caciocavallo or Pecorino also pair well with the wine's warm, spiced character.

Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package, carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older.


Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.


Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.


Heat/Frost damage

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice-packs upon request. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Producer profile

Canlibero

Canlibero was founded in 2011 by Ennio Romano and Mena Iannella in Torrecuso, a hillside village in the Sannio Beneventano. Both came from grape-growing families who had previously sold fruit to the local cooperative. When they stopped selling grapes and began making wine themselves, Canlibero was born.

The estate covers just over 2 hectares divided across several parcels in the Torrecuso area, all farmed following biodynamic principles. Vineyards sit at 420 to 470 meters on clayey and rocky soils and are planted to Aglianico, Fiano, Falanghina, Trebbiano, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Aglianico parcel known as Turrumpiso contains vines over 50 years old.

In the cellar, all wines undergo spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, with no sulfur dioxide added at any point. Wines are not filtered or fined before bottling. Only copper and sulfur are used in the vineyard, as permitted under biodynamic farming.

Wine region

Campania, Italy

Sannio Beneventano occupies the inland province of Benevento in northern Campania, accounting for roughly 50 percent of all Campanian wine production. Vineyards range from 200 to 650 meters above sea level across varied soils that combine volcanic deposits, calcareous clay, limestone, and rocky terrain. The area's continental inland climate, moderated by elevation, produces wines with structure and warmth.

The Sannio area holds three primary appellations: Sannio DOC, Falanghina del Sannio DOC (established 2011), and Aglianico del Taburno DOCG. The broader Beneventano IGT covers the entire province and permits a wide range of varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside native grapes like Aglianico, Falanghina, Fiano, and Piedirosso. Falanghina and Aglianico together dominate the region's identity.
