Edda Lei Salento Chardonnay Blend 2021

Definition of tropical fruits. If you said had fruit in it, I would buy it. Not sugary sweet but for sure a soft, fruity, pleasant wine. I prefer a bit more acid or at least the liveliness that brings. This read flat to me. — a month ago

Maru Salento Negroamaro 2021

Dark ruby color with garnet highlights. Aromas of dark berry fruit, eucalyptus, garrigue and dried tobacco. Flavors of blackberry, black plum, roasted herbs and coffee. Distinct mineral note on the long and lingering finish. Reasonably smooth tannins, especially for the Negroamaro varietal. Thanks for sharing, Chris B! — a year ago

Casa Vinicola Apollonio

Terragnolo Salento Negroamaro

Colour: dark red. The nose is intriguing of red, smoked peppers, dark chocolate and blueberries. The taste is less of the pepper but the blueberries become stronger. Pleasant but soft aftertaste. Very composed and pleasant wine. — 5 years ago
