What a delicious wine with blackberry and cherry flavors. Beautiful purple color, full bodied. Not sure what kind of grape this is but from doing a little research it's from southern Italy and the grapes are dried a certain way after harvest. It's a very elegant wine I love it!

Inky garnet purple in the glass. Nose is shy on opening but opens up to dark purple fruit compote. Echoed on the huge-bodied palate with dried fruit notes (naturally) and medium tannins that come through on the long, dark finish. Medium minus acidity along the lines of an Amarone (again, naturally… it’s a great, less costly alternative), limiting its food choices but they’re there. Try it with a heavy pizza or pasta dish, or osso bucco. Cigar smokers might enjoy this with a Churchill.

Salento region Appassimento wine. Lucious with dark ruby color and great berry taste. Perfect for pairing with lasagna or any southern Italian foods. Smooth enough on its own for sipping. Drank in October 2022
