This Susumaniello from Salento, Puglia, typically offers a vibrant ruby red color. On the nose, expect intense aromas of dark red and black fruits like plum, blackberry, and cherry, often complemented by notes of Mediterranean herbs, black pepper, and a hint of licorice or chocolate. The palate should be medium to full-bodied, with soft, well-integrated tannins, a fresh acidity, and a persistent, fruit-driven finish.
