Susumaniello Salento SERRE DUE PALME

This red wine from the Salento winery Due Palme is made from pure Susumaniello grapes: grown on loamy-clay soils characterised by crushed stone, the grapes are harvested towards the end of September: in fact, a late harvest is carried out in order to achieve a slight over-ripening. Fermentation follows for about ten days at a controlled temperature ranging between 23-25 °C. Ageing takes place in French oak barriques and then in the bottle.

Characteristics of this Salento wine
