It's back!!!

"Ruby red with orange reflections. Intense and complex with notes of ripe fruit and spices. Dry wine with good texture and supple tannins. Perfect with spicy pasta, red meat and mature cheeses."  

80% Negroamaro, 20% Primitivo makes for a charming and rewarding encounter. It looks the part but the tastes leaves the lasting impression. The appassimento element (Appassimento is the Italian word for 'withering', which gives a clue to how these wines are made. The grapes are dried after harvest, laid on racks in airy warehouses where they gently shrivel during the winter months, concentrating the sugars and the flavour compounds.), adds to the texture and drive of the wine.  

A very attractive proposition.
