Vino Di Gran

Salento Negroamaro

Ionis Vino Di Gran is a captivating red wine crafted from the Negroamaro varietal, hailing from the sun-soaked region of Salento. With its deep ruby hue, this wine entices the eye, promising a sensory journey. The body is medium, offering a balance that is pleasing yet substantial enough to make a statement. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's refreshing qualities and making it wonderfully food-friendly. Flavors of ripe dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, create a prominent fruit intensity that dances on the palate. Tannins in this wine are notable, lending structure without overwhelming the smooth mouthfeel. With a dry profile, Ionis Vino Di Gran celebrates the rich terroir of Salento, making it an excellent companion for both casual gatherings and special occasions.

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.
