Il Pumo

2014 Salento Negroamaro

Cantine San Marzano Il Pumo, a stunning red wine from the renowned Salento region, showcases the exquisite character of the Negroamaro varietal. This 2014 vintage displays a deep ruby hue, inviting you to explore its rich aromas and flavors. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a captivating harmony of ripe dark fruit, such as black cherry and plum, beautifully complemented by notes of spice and earthy undertones. The refreshing acidity adds vibrancy, while the well-integrated tannins provide structure and depth, making it an outstanding choice for those who appreciate a wine with finesse. With its delightful balance and food-friendly nature, Il Pumo is perfect for pairing with a variety of dishes, from hearty pastas to grilled meats.

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.
