Producer Information

Giacomo and Sandro Candido's range is perhaps the most diverse and innovative to be found in Puglia, yet the wines continue to offer unbeatable value for money. The climate is mediterranean with low rainfall and ripening takes place slowly due to the striking contrast between day and night-time temperatures, resulting in a strong development of aromas, richness and concentration. This historic old, family owned property continues to improve under the guiding hand of one of Italy's top winemakers, Donato Lanati.

Grapes

Negroamaro, Malvasia Nera

Production

Salento is renowned for its Mediterranean climate with its prevailing winds, cool nights, very low rainfall and for the moderating influence of the sea. Due to the winds there are also extreme differences between day and night temperatures which result in a slow ripening of the grapes, helping them develop exceptional aroma and flavour compounds.

The must is fermented on the skins at a controlled temperature for about five days. After alcoholic and malolactic fermentation have taken place in stainless steel tanks, the wine is matured in large oak casks.

Tasting Notes

This wine is a delightful ruby colour which develops hints of orange on the rim with maturity. The nose has an ethereal bouquet and distinctive aromas of cocoa and leather. On the palate, it has a pleasant enveloping structure with the typical rich and warm black fruit notes well combined with the typical French oak aromas.

Try with pasta dishes with richly flavoured sauces, red and white roast meats and poultry.
