Intense black fruit on the nose alongside perfumes of cherry and freshly cut violet. A touch of ‘asspassimento’ in the vinification process leads to a rich, velvety palate, while vines planted in 1935 almost certainly offer additional fruit concentration. Well structured with uplifting acidity, this is one of the great wines of Salento - complex notes of black pepper and sweet spice characterise a long, luscious finish.
