Cupone

2010 Salice Salentino Negroamaro Malvasia Nera

The Feudi Di Guagnano Cupone is a captivating red wine that beautifully showcases the unique characteristics of its varietals, Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera. Hailing from the Salice Salentino region, this 2010 vintage boasts an enchanting deep ruby hue that invites exploration. On the nose, it reveals a rich bouquet of dark fruits, such as ripe blackberries and cherries, complemented by subtle earthy undertones and a hint of spice. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and generous, delivering a harmonious balance of acidity that elevates the overall experience. With well-integrated tannins, this wine provides a smooth texture that is both approachable and satisfying. The finish is delightfully persistent and leaves a lasting impression, making it a fantastic choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.

Region:


Puglia
Puglia

The heel of Italy's "boot," sunny Puglia (the "g" is silent), is famed for its olive oils, almonds and of course, its rich, full-bodied wines. Although dry and intensely hot in the summer, Puglia has coastlines on three sides, providing cool Mediterranean breezes to alleviate the daytime heat. Primitivo (known in the US as Zinfandel) does well here, with other popular red varieties including Sangiovese and Negroamaro. But it is not all about reds in Puglia: the local Fiano grape produces gloriously nutty, tropical-flavored white, while Falanghina makes intensely fruity wines with citrus blossom notes.
