The Feudi Di Guagnano Terramare Di Guagnano is a captivating red wine crafted from the Negroamaro varietal, hailing from the picturesque Salento region of Italy. This vintage from 2012 showcases an inviting deep ruby hue that sets the stage for its charming personality. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied character complemented by vibrant acidity, which imbues the wine with a sense of liveliness. The fruit intensity shines through with prominent notes of ripe dark fruit, mingled with subtle hints of earthy undertones and spice, making it an enticing choice for lovers of rich flavor profiles. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing a robust structure that enhances its aging potential, while the wine is notably dry, allowing its flavors to shine without being overshadowed. Overall, this wine is a delightful testament to the terroir of Salento, perfect for pairing with a variety of 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.
