History and Winemaking

The Negroamaro grapes are harvested manually in late September, after a **slight drying on the vine**. Harvesting is selective, followed by isothermal truck transport. In the cellar, there is a further selection on a sorting table. Maceration on the skins lasts 3-4 weeks in steel vats. The wine matures for **12 months in barriques** and is bottled **without fining or filtering**, to preserve its aromatic and structural integrity.

Organoleptic Profile

Appearance: Intense, very deep ruby red color.

Nose: Prominent notes of **dark flowers** blending with fruity hints of **plum** and a pleasantly **spicy** finish.

Palate: Extreme **freshness** and a **well-shaped tannic structure** balanced by the wine’s softness, giving it depth. Retro-olfactory sensations recall **Mediterranean scrub, tobacco leaves, toasted cocoa beans, and leather**. The **persistence is extremely long**, supported by vigorous but not overly intrusive tannins.

Food Pairings

Perfect with: Substantial first and second courses based on red meats. Traditional Salento pairing: **pezzetti di carne di cavallo al sugo (horse meat stew)**.

Serving Temperature: 18°C

Recommended Glass: Large glass for major red wines (e.g., Balloon or Burgundy type)

The Excellence of Negroamaro – A red of great depth and longevity, from a symbolic Salento winemaker.
