Salice Salentino DOP Rosso Riserva

This southern Italian red is rustic charm in a glass — bold, earthy, and unapologetically Puglian. Made from Negroamaro, it opens with deep, dark fruit aromas: think sun-dried cherries, wild blackberry, and a whisper of tobacco leaf. On the palate, it’s generous and warming, with layers of stewed plum, dried herbs, and a hint of cocoa. The oak ageing lends a firm backbone and subtle spice, while the finish is savoury, long, and just a little wild. Pair it with roast lamb, rich tomato pastas, or sharp cheeses for the full southern Italian experience.
