Salento IGT Fichimori 2023 Tormaresca

The Salento Tormaresca Fichimori of the Marchesi Antinori was born in the estate of S. Pietro Vernotico, owned by the Antinori family and located in Apulia, in the Salento area.

It is mainly produced with Negroamaro grapes, with a small addition of Syrah grapes, cold macerated for 5 days at a temperature of 5 °C, in order to extract the varietal aromas, colour and softer polyphenolic components. The wine then ferments without skins at a controlled temperature of 18 °C.

It is a purple-red wine with elegant purple reflections. The nose opens with a large and intense bouquet of cherry and strawberry, accompanied by shades of black currant and pomegranate. On the palate it is pleasant and of good flavour. It is a modern and dynamic interpretation of Negroamaro.

Red wine to be drunk cold, at a temperature of 8-10 °C, it is ideal to accompany raw fish such as tartare, sashimi and sushi. Excellent in combination with appetizers, it is perfect with fish and white meats, both stewed and grilled.
