Negroamaro 'Il Pumo' San Marzano 2023

The Negroamaro ‘Il Pumo’ from San Marzano is a generous and straightforward Salento red. The name refers to the pumo, the ceramic ornament that has adorned balconies and staircases in Puglia for centuries as a symbol of abundance. It is made from Negroamaro grapes grown on trellises in clayey and stony soils, vinified with a maceration of about ten days and aged in steel to preserve the purity of the fruit. On the nose, it offers notes of blackcurrant, berries, spices, and a hint of thyme. The palate is full-bodied, soft, and balanced, with a long and savory finish. Perfect with orecchiette pasta with meat sauce.
