Medium-bodied with a silky texture that gives way to flavours of cherries and plums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced almost exclusively in the southern region of Puglia, Italy, Appassimento is a the process of drying out the grapes whilst still on the vine. This tradition was historically used in the Veneto region in the production of Amarone, and goes back many centuries. The lovely Primitivo and Negroamaro fruits are naturally dried on the vine for 25 days, allowing a naturally higher concentration of natural sugar from the grape and combined with a long period of aging to create a supple wine full of ripe black fruits and spices with complex hints of spice, vanilla, and raisins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArea of Production: Puglia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal: 80% Negroamaro and 20% Primitivo.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServing temperature: 18°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLuca Maroni 2019 - 98 Points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinery Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1882, the Piccini family has been developing Italian wine through the senses and excellences of it's territory.
