That’s the big brother.
‘Garrisa’ is the little brother. Comes in at half the price.
Susumaniello means…Go, Go Donkey in the local dialect.

The same producer makes incredible white wines with Verdeca grapes.

Puglia Susumaniello 2022

Rose version actually
Great colour
Susumaniello has a distinctive scent and taste of vanilla/caramel which you can find here, not giving by oak or other stuff, but it comes from the grape.
The wine is fleshier than what it looks and quite long.
Lookout for this variety!!

Verso Sud Susumaniello

The vineyards are treated in the perfect climate. The grapes are harvested by hand after careful selection of the bunches. The must, obtained by soft pressing, lends itself to a gentle maceration on the skins and undergoes a light fining in the bottle before being released for sale. It produces a strong, intense ruby color with violet reflections. It releases aromas of blackberry and cherry, tobacco, chocolate, spices, and vetiver, harmonious and persistent. Great expressiveness and completeness.
This wine is a tribute to this successful combination of craftsmanship and technology, an authentic expression of experimentation.

@Peter Sultan very interestingly i had a producer from Puglia with me on the road lately that makes Susumaniello too. She was explained to me how this varietal has a vanilla scent and flavour without the support of any French oak. Some bottle age enhances that factor but i found it quite unique and thought to share it. I believe that might have to do whit that soft side you were pointing out. I have a susumaniello rose in my portfolio and the release before the last had started to show that component. I agree it is a very interesting variety 😊
