The grapes are harvested by hand during the second half of September. The fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature between 16°C and 18°C. Part of the wine ages in stainless steel tanks and another part in big oak barrels. The blend undergoes a final aging in bottle for 3 months.
Dark red color with purple hints. Complex bouquet with red fruits aroma and spicy notes. In the mouth it is warm and intense.
The grape Susumaniello, probably of Dalmatian origin, has been growing in Apulia for a long time, mainly in the province of Brindisi. The name comes from its abundant yield that allowed, literally, to “load the donkey” (caricare il somaro).
