Ponte Piccolo

2010 Salento Negroamaro

Fabiana Ponte Piccolo is a captivating red wine crafted from the Negroamaro varietal, hailing from the esteemed Salento region in Italy. This 2010 vintage showcases a deep, alluring ruby hue that draws you in with its inviting appearance. On the nose, it reveals a bouquet of dark fruit aromas, including luscious blackberries and rich plums, complemented by subtle hints of leather and earthy undertones that add complexity. In the mouth, the wine presents a smooth and well-rounded experience, featuring moderate acidity that balances beautifully with its fruit-forward character. The tannins are structured yet approachable, providing a gentle grip that enhances the overall enjoyment without overshadowing the fruit. A delightful option for those seeking a food-friendly pairing, Fabiana Ponte Piccolo is perfect for sharing over hearty meals or enjoying on its own during a cozy evening.

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.
