Verso Rosso Salento 2013

Salento, Puglia, ItalyWow, delicious soft round juicy red with a touch of 'appassimento,' dried grapes. The grapes come off two crus within Puglia and when blended produce about 1500 cases. The colour is dark the nose spicy, the palate southern Italian rustic but with smoky, silky textures. An impressive affordable 60/35/15 blend of negroamaro, primitivo, malvasia nera. Perfect for fall roasted meat dishes or try it with mature savoury hard Italian cheeses. The wine spends 18 months in wood and 18 months in stainless steel after it comes out of the oak.Tasted: 05 September 2014Tasted by: Prices:
