The box contains a bottle of Pietrafinita Salento IGT, one of Cupone Salice Salentino Negroamaro Riserva Doc and one of Nero di Velluto Negroamaro IGT Salento from the historic vintage selection.

The name is reminiscent of carefree young people’s summer parties on the Salento beaches Straw-coloured wine with pale green highlights. Hints of green apple and elderberry in the mouth with a pleasant mineral finish.

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.

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.

“Salice Salentino Negroamaro” is one of the first denominations created in Puglia; it was, in fact, established in April 1974. The geographical area for the production of this important DOP comprises 7 towns in the north of the Salento region of which Guagnano is one. DieciAnni Salice Salentino Negroamaro has a dense colour with soft garnet-coloured shades. The nose is complex and suggestive of flavours ranging from the typical hint of tobacco to vanilla. On the palate are hints of bitter almond and powerful tannins.

Rosés have always represented the flagship of the Apulian wine renaissance. Like Rosarò, the best rosé wine in Italy in 2018 and one of the few with a protected designation of origin in Salento. It is coral pink in color and extraordinarily bright. Intriguing to the nose with pleasant nuances of pink grapefruit, strawberry and peach. Persistent finish with citrus and balsamic notes.

Chardonnay is cultivated all around the world, even though it has different features (taste, hints, colour and personality) depending on the soil where it is cultivated. DieciAnni Chardonnay is a straw-coloured wine; the palate is full flavoured with hints of pear, pineapple, aromatic herbs and spicy notes. On the finish it is well balanced.

Hand-painted wooden box by the artists Mario Miccoli and Nadia Verrienti that reproduces the profile of a woman with her blonde hair adorned with typical southern fruits: grapes, lemons, tangerines. The box contains a bottle of Le Camarde Negroamaro&Primitivo IGP Salento, one of Cupone Salice Salentino Negroamaro Riserva Dop and one of Nero di Velluto Negroamaro IGP Salento.

All grape varieties have their own story and primitivo is no exception: from Gioia del Colle it travelled to Manduria and then to Guagnano. Each Primitivo has different characteristics: DieciAnni Primitivo is an elegant and opulent wine. It has a dense red colour with intense violet tints. Voluptuous and persistent on the nose with a penetrating and intriguing perfume of violet. Soft tannins enhance the hints of liquorice, black cherry and plum.
