Tasting Notes

This distinctive wine from Puglia embodies traditional Italian winemaking heritage. Its 13% alcohol content supports a rounded, well-integrated style. Crafted from Negroamaro 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards in the area of San Donaci and Salice Salentino on medium-textured soils. Vinification: alcoholic fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature for 8-10 days. Complete malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged 5 months in steel tanks. A wine reflecting Puglia's tradition of generous, full-bodied reds.
