The wine region of Locorotondo
DOC of the Valle d'Itria in southern Puglia (Locorotondo, Cisternino, Fasano), the land of trulli on free-draining limestone soils ventilated by the Adriatic. Verdeca is the signature native white (50–65%) blended with Bianco d'Alessano (35–50%): pale yellow-green, dry and delicate with lively citrus, green apple, white flowers and a mineral-almond hint, taut acidity and an elegant finish. Also in Spumante. Fiano and Bombino as complements.
The wine region of Puglia
Heel of the boot, 80% red vineyard, sunny and generous. Fleshy, jammy Primitivo (= Zinfandel) with notes of black cherry, plum, chocolate and spices, powerful alcohol and melted tannins, a star in Primitivo di Manduria. Deep, structured Negroamaro (black-bitter) with a bitter finish in Salice Salentino. Structured Nero di Troia, spicy Susumaniello.
The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
