About this wine

The vineyards lie in the Puglia wine region, between two seas. The climate is very dry and hot, enabling the grapes to accumulate abundant sugar during ripening.

Vinification

The wine is produced using traditional methods, with temperature controlled throughout every stage of production.

Tasting profile

Spicy notes mark the palate.
