Masso Antico Le Anfore Salento Rosso 2020 (Italy)

Description

• American & French oak
• Vanilla & coffee
• Chocolate
• Full bodied

An intense ruby red colour, with scents of vanilla and chocolate, whisky and coffee. On the palate it is full-bodied and enveloping but at the same time harmonious.

The grapes are grown in the vineyard of Tenute Masso Antico in accordance with organic farming methods and harvested by hand. After vinification, the wine is aged with a double passage in an Amphora and in French and American oak barrels. The cocciopesto amphorae, a special mixture of crushed earthenware aggregates, fibres, stone fragments, sand, cement binder and water, guarantee to the wine a controlled microoxygenation and the result is a fully developed wine with peculiar and genuine flavours.

Food Pairing: Goes perfectly with red meat and game cooked on the grill or in stews and with mature cheeses.
