Chardonnay is a vine present everywhere in the world but the wines it gives us are not the same at all. Each of them has taste, aromas, color and personality that speak of the area in which it is grown. Like this Diecianni: a straw yellow wine that releases notes of pear, pineapple and aromatic herbs. Extraordinary on the palate with a spicy entrance and a finish with good sapidity.

Verdeca is one of the historical Puglia grape varieties. Its name comes from the particular pale green colour of the grape, which is also typical of the wine. The best type of soil for verdeca is shallow calcareous rock. In the glass the nose shows hints of green apple, lemon and star anise. Sensations of salt with good balance and finesse on the palate.

Vegamaro is a pun with the words “vegan” and “negroamaro” and it is the first vegan negroamaro in the world. The whole production process, from the vine to the bottle, is done following a rigorous protocol. The grapes are cultivated avoiding manure, herbicide with an animal origin and pesticide. During the vinification process only vegetal substances are used. Bright red ruby wine; on the nose it is rich in crisp red fruits, with hints of sweet spices and roasted tobacco. Well-balanced, full bodied and elegant in the mouth with good tannic structure that enhances the flavour through to the long finish. 

The denomination Salice Salentino Negroamaro is one of the first born in Puglia: in fact, it was established in April 1974. The geographical area dedicated to the production of this important DOP includes a total of 7 municipalities in Northern Salento including Guagnano. The Diecianni Salice Salentino Negroamaro has a compact red color with delicate garnet hues. The sensory profile is complex: it ranges from the typical notes of tobacco and vanilla. In the mouth it expresses sensations of bitter almond on a powerful tannin. Of these magnums, vintage 2016, only 762 bottles were produced and they are all sold with a certificate of authenticity.

This wine is produced with grapes from three vineyards located in an area named Camarda. We think of them as three old sisters (Le Camarde is the plural noun of Camarda) reliably giving us great wines every year. When young it is a dense ruby-red wine with a complex nose with hints of potpourri and dried flowers. Coffee and dark chocolate on the palate with a long finish supported by silky tannins.

Whatever is the exact historical origin of a rosè wine, this wine can represent a real oenological masterpiece for every winery: for colour, flavours and taste.
Terramare is an involving wine with a young taste: it is peach blossom pink with a good consistence. Pleasantly fruity in the nose with sensations of cherry and mineral hints. Freshness and citrus fruits hints in the mouth.

Packaged in an elegant cardboard case containing a bottle of Nero di Velluto Salento IGT set up with a bag and sugared almonds. The wedding favor can also contain other bottles from the Feudi di Guagnano catalog and can be set up with personalized labels.

WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF? 

The tasting includes the tasting of 5 wines (Rosarò Rosato Salice Salentino Negroamaro DOP + Diecianni Negroamaro Salento IGP + Diecianni Malvasia Nera Salento IGP + Cupone Salice Salentino Negroamaro Riserva DOP + Pietrafinita Primitivo di Manduria DOP) and a cold platter of local meats and cheese. During the tasting we will illustrate the cultivation and vinification techniques of negroamaro and black malvasia and primitivo, both in red and rosé. The experience is made even more interesting by the narration of anecdotes, stories and curiosities such as that of Leonardo da Vinci's filling cap.

WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF? 

The meeting point is the cellar, located in the town. We will then drive to the vineyards of negroamaro cultivated according to the ancient "alberello" system, just outside the town. We will then continue the visit to the "vignesalve", organic vineyards, where you can visit an ancient well of Salento with a circular plan, dug by hand and built in tuff and carparo from Lecce. We continue with the artistic-existential hermitage of a famous painter from Guagnano (Vincent) to surprise the eyes and soul by admiring the beautiful Gaudian-style building and its characteristic paintings.

This is a fascinating and rewarding Salento Negromaro, worth keeping  in the cellar to drink a glass at just the right moment. Intense red wine with an explosion of carob and raisins on the nose; spicy hints of black pepper and tobacco in the mouth. The finish is long with firm structure.
