Susumaniello Salento Rosé IGP by Varvaglione is a rosé wine that captures the essence of the freshness of Salento. Obtained from the rare Susumaniello varietal, this wine has a bright coral pink color that announces a summer drink par excellence. On the nose it is rich in captivating aromas of small red fruits, notes of pomegranate and a hint of aromatic herbs, which intertwine to create a pleasantly complex olfaction.

On the palate, it is lively and fresh, with a balanced acidity and fresh red fruit flavors such as strawberry and raspberry, which blend with a subtle minerality. The Magnum size bottle makes it ideal for sharing on festive occasions or social gatherings, keeping the freshness intact thanks to the superior preservation capacity.

Perfect as an aperitif, this Susumaniello also pairs beautifully with light dishes such as summer salads, grilled fish or seafood. A true jewel of Salento, this rosé demonstrates how even lesser-known vines can give surprising and noteworthy results.
