The Susumaniello di Vallone is a fine expression of a native grape variety from Southern Italy, specifically rooted in the Puglian wine tradition. This wine stands out for its lively intensity and rich structure, making it a unique specimen within the Italian wine scene.
To the nose, the Susumaniello di Vallone releases a complex bouquet where predominant notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and blackberries, are enriched by spicy nuances of vanilla and black pepper, resulting from its aging in wood. The olfactory complexity is completed with light touches of aromatic herbs and damp earth, adding depth and character to the aromatic profile.
On the palate, the wine demonstrates considerable robustness, maintaining an excellent balance between acidity and mature tannins which confer a solid and persistent structure. The same fruity notes detected by the nose are found in the mouth, enhanced by a slight aftertaste of dark chocolate and coffee, evidencing its evolution during aging.
Ideal for pairing with dishes rich in flavors, such as roasted red meats, game-based dishes, or aged cheeses, the Susumaniello di Vallone can also be enjoyed on its own, as a meditative wine, thanks to its complex range of aromas and long-lasting taste persistence.
Vallone Winery, with its dedication to the enhancement of native grape varieties and meticulous attention at every stage of production, presents with this Susumaniello a wine of great character and elegance, which celebrates the uniqueness of the Puglian territory. Whether for a special evening or as a gift for an enthusiast of Italian wines, the Susumaniello di Vallone is certainly a high-profile choice.
