Winemaking
The black-skinned grape is sensitive to its growing environment but does extremely well here in Polignano. We are the only vineyard to cultivate this unique grape in Puglia (IGT). The level of ripeness of the grape variety has a considerable effect on the structure of the eventual wine. After hand-picking the grapes, they are macerated at a temperature not exceeding 26°c. Regular fermentation at 22°c takes place in steel barrels. We age this fruity wine in steel barrels for 12 months so it can develop its deep red tones and then for a further 6 months in the bottle.
Organoleptic
A silky, Malbec where the tannins from the grape skins expands the colour and flavour to give a long finish. This wine is adorned with heady violet hues that tantalise the nose and on the palate, hints of blueberry, blackberry and cherry which is soft, enveloping and lasting.
