Marmorelle Rosso

2013 Salento Negroamaro

The Tenute Rubino Marmorelle Rosso is a captivating red wine from the renowned Salento region, showcasing the rich characteristics of the Negroamaro varietal. This 2013 vintage boasts a full-bodied profile with an elegant balance of acidity that enhances its overall structure. With prominent fruit intensity, one can savor the luscious flavors of ripe dark cherries and blackberries, complemented by subtle herbal notes and hints of spice. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing a sturdy backbone that ensures a delightful mouthfeel. This wine is notably dry, making it a fantastic pairing for hearty dishes and rich Mediterranean cuisine, truly embodying the essence of its coastal Italian origins.

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.
