Bella Mojgan

2006 Salento Negroamaro 80%, Malvasia Nera 20%

The Marco Maci Bella Mojgan, crafted predominantly from Negroamaro with a touch of Malvasia Nera, is a captivating red wine hailing from the sun-kissed Salento region. This vintage, rooted in the rich terroir of southern Italy, displays a deep ruby hue that entices the eye. On the palate, it reveals a medium to full-bodied character, complemented by a moderate acidity that brings refreshing balance. The fruit intensity is certainly prominent, showcasing ripe berries and dark cherry notes against a backdrop of subtle spice. Tannins are well-integrated and provide a firm structure that supports the wine's complex profile. While the wine is dry, it maintains an inviting warmth, making it a delightful companion for hearty dishes or a cozy evening by the fire.

Salento

The heel of Italy's boot, Salento is a hot, sun-baked region known for its rustic red wines. Most are made from the holy trinity of local grapes: Negroamaro, Malvasia Nera and Primitivo (usually known as Zinfandel in the New World). Some of these robust blends feature big Italian names like Sangiovese and famous French grapes like Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. While powerful red wines are the main attraction here, white wines from Salento, with their intense, fruity aromas, are also worth seeking.
