Antica Enotria, Rosso, Puglia, Italy
Raffaele Di Tuccio and wife, Addolorata left Basilicata in the 90's in search of fertile land and natural approaches to farming, they found their spot in Puglia. They renovated a Contessa Staffa farm near Cerignola and they began farming organically and producing natural wines. Since then they have branched out further and farm some of the best tomatoes and pickles for their authentic sauce company.
The grapes are harvested and slightly crushed before macerating on skins for 8 days and undergoing a temperature controlled fermentation, once complete the wine ages for 7 months in stainless steel.
This is a fresh yet dry red with notes of ripe cherries and forest berries, hints of violet and soft tannins.
