How to serve it
Tasting notes
Ruby red. The nose is pleasant and delicate, with red fruit and a light spicy touch, showing remarkable elegance and balance. The palate is harmonious and refined, with fine tannins and a clean, graceful finish. It opens up nicely with a little air and is best served in a generous glass, where its fruit and structure can fully unfold.
About this wine
This red Susumaniello comes from the "Iconica" range of Cantina Museo Albea in Alberobello. Susumaniello is a rare native Apulian grape, here grown around Alberobello and Martina Franca.
After thirteen days of maceration the wine spends six months in French barriques and three months in bottle, a short ageing that adds polish without hiding the fruit.
It is an elegant and finely balanced red, showing a more refined side of Puglia than the region's more powerful wines. The historic cellar in Alberobello also houses a small wine museum, a testament to the long winemaking tradition of the Itria Valley.
