This wine is labeled IGP Salento. This means the grapes are authorized to come from Lecce, Brindisi, and Taranto, three districts in Apulia. After harvest, the grapes undergo a long maceration process, which gives the wine its deep color. The must is then fermented. This results in a full-bodied wine with supple tannins and beautiful aromas. Its color is ruby red in the glass, with a rich bouquet of fruit nuances such as blackberries, cherries, strawberries, and currants on the nose. The palate is rich and full, yet soft, with plenty of fruit, dominated by blackberries, complemented by subtle herbs, jammy notes, and cherry tart.
