1943 SALENTO ROSSO IGP
TASTING NOTES
An intense red wine with purple highlights. Its bouquet appears very complex and elegant. On the nose it explodes with hints of roasted coffee bean, ripe cherry and plum, combined with spicy notes of vanilla. Harmoniously balanced and velvety on the palate, with a delicate balance of tannins it is full-bodied and delicious, with the rich underlying sweetness typical of wines made with dried grapes.

TASTING NOTES: The wine has an intense garnet red colour with a full bouquet of red fruits in particular ripe cherries with hints of vanilla and the special Negroamaro spiciness. On the palate it is beautifully soft with an intensity of flavour and soft tannins. Wonderfully fresh (thanks to the careful work in the cellar) it has a long and satisfying finish. Perfect as a wine of mediation… or of conversation!
