Papale comes from berries from the Primitivo vineyards owned by the Cantina Varvaglione located in the splendid lands of Salento. Fermentation takes place in steel and maturation in wood for a period of at least 8 months.
When poured, it shows an intense ruby red color with purple reflections. The nose releases hints reminiscent of blackcurrant, cherry and blackberry fruit jam, with splashes of cocoa and licorice. A perfectly balanced, harmonious and full-bodied wine, long and persistent.
A perfect glass to combine with grilled red meats, large dishes of stews and braised meats.
