Description
This box contains two emblematic expressions of the wild land of Salento, where the summer heat and the fresh sea breeze forge two iconic vines such as Primitivo and Negroamaro.
Notte Rossa's Primitivo di Manduria is the result of aging in French and American oak barrels for 5-6 months. Its ruby red color with purple hues combines with its rich and enveloping aroma of plum and black cherry, from which emerge spicy hints of cocoa and vanilla. On the palate it is warm and structured, with a very persistent finish. It is perfect with first courses and lamb, but also pairs well with game and hard cheeses.
Negroamaro Terra d'Otranto is bottled after 6 months of aging in French oak barrels. Deep purple red in color, it offers a complex bouquet of spices, berries and cherry jam. On the palate it is full-bodied, soft and harmonious, with well-integrated tannins. Recommended with robust first courses and red meat second courses, it is excellent with mature cheeses and game.
