Blend of 50% Sangiovese, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Syrah
Solco catches the eye with its intense red, enriched with precious purple shades. The nose reveals unmistakable aromas of red fruits, among which cherry and black cherry stand out, wrapped in the gentle embrace of sweet spices. A full body wine that never loses its refined elegance. The silky tannic texture offers the palate a pleasant sensation of softness with a long and persistent finish.
It goes perfectly with roasts, red meats, game and cheeses.
99 points Annuario Del Migliori Vini Luca Maroni
Appassimento wine comes from the grape produced almost exclusively in the southern region of Puglia. This Italian red wine is a specialty of the Salento peninsula, the “heel” of Italy’s “boot” shape. This landscape’s caressing sun and sea breeze bestow the intense fruit bouquets of the territory’s most famous reds.Appassimento refers to a process of drying out the grapes while on the vine, a tradition going back many centuries and was historically used in the Veneto region for the production of Amarone. With this, lovely Negroamaro and Primitivo grapes, are naturally dried on the vine for 25 days, which allows a higher concentration of sugar and lets the water out, combined with a long period of cement age to create a supple wine full of ripe black fruits with complex hints of raisins, spice and vanilla.
