What a find this is!
Scoring 99/100 by Luca Maroni from the renowned Miglior Vino in Assoluto in the 2025 awards. Unheard of…Also awarded from these prestigious graders; Gold Medal Berliner Wine Trophy | Gold Medal Asia Wine Trophy | Silver Medal Mundus Vini.
This wine is made with Susumaniello grapes grown in red, iron-rich soil over limestone. The vineyard work is done manually, and winemaking is traditional; the use of aging woods is never too invasive. It is aged in a mix of steel and wood.
It is described as smooth, full-bodied, having an intense ruby red colour, balanced tannins, and aromas of ripe red fruit, blackberry, underbrush, and tobacco.
A rich opulent and delicious style of red from Puglia - If you love a rich Primitivo or an oak-aged Rioja, then you’re in for a treat, because Susumaniello is a hidden gem that deserves its moment in the spotlight!
