The wine region of Gioia del Colle
DOC of Apulia on the central Murge plateau south of Bari, limestone plateau at 200–500 m, among the highest in Apulia, cooler climate than Salento. Primitivo is the flagship red (historic cradle alongside Manduria): ample and structured with notes of blackberry, black cherry, plum, herbs, pepper and a balsamic touch, fine tannins and refreshing acidity — more elegant and slender than Manduria. Montepulciano, Sangiovese and Negroamaro blends as complement. A cooler alternative.
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: Champagne rosé
Often obtained by adding red wines (from Champagne), it is even the only vineyard where this practice is allowed. Some producers prefer the practice used in other regions, i.e. a short maceration to extract sufficient colouring matter. This results in winey rosés for meals. Elegant aperitif rosé is more often made from red wine coloured Chardonnay. Rosés can be vintage or non vintage.
