Winemaking: Grown in the sun-drenched vineyards of southern Puglia, the Sangiovese grapes are harvested at peak ripeness to ensure rich fruit expression. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel with moderate temperature control to balance extraction and freshness. Post-fermentation, the wine is aged briefly in tank to preserve its juicy, approachable style with soft tannins and ripe red fruit character.

Vintage 2024: The 2024 vintage in IGP Puglia benefited from abundant sunshine and warm, stable conditions, allowing for optimal ripening and excellent fruit concentration. Cool nights helped preserve natural acidity, resulting in balanced, vibrant wines with rich flavour and freshness. Overall, the vintage delivered exceptional quality across the region—ideal for producing approachable, fruit-forward styles with real drinkability.

Tasting Note: Juicy and approachable, this Sangiovese shows ripe red plum, cherry, and subtle hints of dried herbs. The palate is round and generous, with soft tannins and a smooth, fruit-driven finish. A crowd-pleasing red that pairs effortlessly with everyday meals.
