Wine features:
this wine, which is produced only in the best vintages, is the result of a late harvest of autochthonous grapes of Salento, coming from old vines cultivated with the ancient tree system. Its elegance and character makes it unique. After refining 5 years in big Slavonian oak casks, it has a structure and texture typical of the big wines of this area. Its colour is deep red with garnet highlights. Its nose is intense and fascinating with ripe red fruits meeting spicy scents. Velvety and round, it has noble tannins and a long lasting persistence.
   
Food matches:
braised meat, game and roasted lamb. Excellent with terrines and very seasoned cheeses. Thanks to its austere character and intensity, this wine is a meditation glass, which can give great satisfaction with dark chocolate.
