DIECIANNI NEGROAMARO

In Salento, the celebration wine of choice is Malvasia Nera. DieciAnni Malvasia Nera is a single varietal wine vinified without any contact with oak in order to enhance the natural fragrance of the fruit. DieciAnni Malvasia Nera is an intense ruby-red colour wine; on the nose are hints of dewberry, blood orange and violet. The palate is fresh with  hints of cherry and blueberry. The wine is mouth-filling with supple tannins.  

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;spicyhints of black pepper and tobacco in the mouth.The finish is long with firm structure.

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.

This extraordinary wine remains engraved on the memory just like the “pietrefinite”, or boundary stones, which have remained for centuries where our ancestors  placed them to mark the borders of their vineyards. Ruby-red wine with purple tints. Hints of black cherry and liquorice on the nose. Cocoa and almond-stuffed figs on the mouth and a lengthy finish.

Tradition and respect for the land can be found in this riserva wine. Cupone has a unique and austere character obtained by using grapes from old negroamaro bush-vines. A particularly bright and full-bodied red wine; hints of tobacco, nuts and Mediterranean herbs on the nose; soft tannins and balsamic hints on the palate.  

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.

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.

Negroamaro is the most widely planted grape variety in Puglia. Both its origins and name are uncertain. The name may  derive from the local dialect  (niuru maru) or indeed from the combination of the Latin word niger and the Greek mavros, both indicating the typical black colour of the grapes. DieciAnni Negroamaro is a deep red colour wine with marked fragrances of plum and cherry on the nose. The palate is full bodied and well-balanced supported by elegant tannins.

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.

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.

If you are looking for tradition and respect for the territory, this reserve wine will not betray your expectations. It is a wine with an austere and unique character obtained from ancient negroamaro “Alberelli”. Particularly bright red and good consistency. Notes of tobacco, nuts and Mediterranean herbs on the nose. Soft tannins and balsamic notes on the palate. Only 25 magnum bottles (of the vintage 2006) were produced and all the bottles have their own certificate of authenticity.

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.
