Nero di Troia out of the north of Puglia. What a contrast with the Salento wines. Steely tannins and less fruitdriven. More elegant. Very interesting!

Ruby red. Deep cherry. A bit chalky.

A lesser year for Falcone. Still good, though.

Very nice. Would fool me as a Bordeaux. And one w some age. Has a long tart/tannic finish. Nice balance. Would definitely buy again. Great value.
