Villa Di Grazia

2009 Salento Sauvignon

Marco Maci Villa Di Grazia is an impressive Sauvignon from the vibrant Salento region, showcasing the rich, sun-kissed terroir of southern Italy. This white wine presents a beautifully clear, pale straw hue that glimmers in the glass. On the palate, it offers a delightful experience with medium body that strikes a perfect balance between sophistication and approachability. Its acidity is lively and refreshing, enhancing the wine's overall brightness and making it an excellent companion for various dishes. The fruit intensity is prominent, with enticing notes of citrus and green apple, complemented by subtle touches of herbal undertones. With a dry finish, this well-crafted wine is an ideal choice for picnics or lively gatherings, brilliantly reflecting the essence of its region.

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.
