Story and Winemaking

This Salice Salentino Riserva is produced in the historically suited territory of the DOP, with grapes harvested from vines trained in alberello and spurred cordon on clay and calcareous soil. The 7-8 day maceration ensures excellent extraction. Aging in French barriques for a minimum of six months gives the wine structure and tertiary aromatic notes of vanilla and cocoa, essential for the Riserva category. It is a wine that fully expresses the character and history of this Salento denomination.
