Description
In a nutshell:
A rich and raisiny red from the Puglian heel of Italy.
The lowdown:
This Puglian red, a blend of Merlot, Primitivo, and Negroamaro, is made using the appassimento method, where the grapes are partially dried, resulting in a concentrated and flavour-packed wine. The bouquet is intoxicating, brimming with warm spices, chocolate, and vanilla. On the palate, it's full-bodied with ripe black fruit flavours, while the tannins are soft and approachable, contributing to a well-balanced wine. This is undeniably a big wine, yet it avoids being a bruiser, and makes for delicious full-flavoured drinking.
The Producer:
Based in the heart of the Veneto, family-owned Casa Vinicola Botter has built a reputation for crafting consistently enjoyable wines that reflect the diverse terroirs of Italy. They've achieved this by sourcing grapes from vineyards that stretch from their northeastern home base all the way down to sunny Sicily. While Botter offers a range of wines, they excel at producing wallet-friendly regional and varietal bottlings that express the character of their origin while not compromising on quality.
When to drink:
A bold red like this is perfect with roasts, or rich game like venison.
Suitable for Vegans
