Salento, Italy
Negroamaro is one of the most famous grape varieties in the warm south of Italy. This is not surprising, as it was planted here long before the Common Era. The grape's characteristic feature is its dark, almost black skin. This also explains the deep, almost black fruit notes, reminiscent of cherries and blackberries, in the wine. Cantina de Falco has been working with this grape variety for over 50 years. The winery is located just outside the city of Lecce. It was founded by Salvatore Falco, the grandfather of the current owner, Gabriele. She strives to continue the family tradition. The average age of the vines is therefore around 30 years. This gives the wines their characteristic concentration. They also avoid new oak as much as possible and strive for an elegant style. Gabriele believes that the pure fruit should be able to express itself.
