Bastioni Della Rocca Leggero Appassimento
Bastioni Della Rocca Leggero Appassimento
Description
A blend of Negroamaro and Primitivo, this Appassimento gives aromatics of sweet cherries and red plums which are woven together with earth, tobacco, grilled herbs and hints of leather. Medium-bodied with a silky texture that gives way to flavours of cherries and plums.
Produced 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.

Yes! However if someone else is accepting the delivery for you, they must be over 18 years of age. Bottega Italia cannot deliver wines to anyone less than 18 years of age. If there is any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, our delivery drivers are obliged to request some form of photographic ID. If that recipient is unable to produce appropriate ID then the delivery driver will be unable to leave the wine.
If nobody will be at home, then just make sure when placing your order that you give us explicit instructions that it’s ok to leave the delivery. With "Authority to Leave" deliveries, our couriers will leave the wine in a safe place, where possible at the delivery address.

By providing us with an "Authority To Leave" instruction when placing your order, then you authorise the courier to leave the goods unattended at the delivery address and you accept that once the courier has done so, the complete order has been received.
