The Versante Primitivo IGP Salento Rosso from Vallone winery is an example of a red wine that captures the essence of the Apulian terroir, reflecting the harmonious fusion between tradition and innovation. This wine is made exclusively with Primitivo grapes, a variety that finds its ideal habitat in the warm climate and clay soils of Salento.

The Salento Rosso Versante Primitivo is distinguished by its intense red color with violet reflections, heralding the complexity and structure that will reveal itself on the palate. On the nose, it offers a rich and enveloping bouquet of ripe red fruits such as cherry and plum, enhanced by nuances of sweet spices, vanilla, and a light touch of tobacco and chocolate, resulting from aging in wood.

On the palate, it is full and robust, with good acidity that balances its generous alcohol content. The tannins are well integrated and soft, making this wine particularly enjoyable to drink at a young age, yet possessing good aging potential. The finish is persistent, with a pleasant resonance of fruity and spicy aromas.

This Primitivo is perfect for pairing with intense dishes such as roasted red meats, game, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent companion for convivial evenings, where its significant palate presence will be appreciated.

A wine that not only represents the quality and identity of its region but also offers a rich and unforgettable sensory experience.
