Produced with 70% Negroamaro grapes and other vines in a lower percentage, this Apulian rosé wine has its origins in Salice Salentino, near Lecce: here the soils are of alluvial origin and are characterized by a conspicuous presence of limestone. After the manual harvest, the bunches are subjected to de-stemming and soft pressing, with maceration of 12-24 hours at a controlled temperature. Fermentation in steel and maturation in cement tanks lined with food resin follows.
Characteristics of this Apulian wine
The organoleptic examination shows a cherry pink color with violet reflections and with olfactory notes that revolve around a bouquet of ripe fruit. On the palate it is fresh, savory and harmonious with hints of fruit, especially plum.
Suggested food pairings while tasting this Apulian rosé wine
Try it with all fish-based dishes, from appetizers to main courses. Also excellent with soups. Serve at a temperature of 10-12 ° C in a tapered glass.
