More questions
Fichimori Salento IGT from Tormaresca is a red wine with an immediate, easy-to-read profile. In an intense ruby colour it opens with notes of ripe red fruit, light spicy hints and a faint balsamic background. The palate is soft on the attack, with tannins that are present but not aggressive and a freshness that supports the drinking. The flavour structure remains linear and clean, with a finish that recalls fruity nuances and a discreet aromatic persistence.
Suited to everyday drinking, it pairs well with pasta with meat sauces, light stews, grilled meats and semi-aged cheeses. The bottle is intended for relatively early consumption, when its fruity component is livelier, and can be served slightly chilled to enhance its aromatic profile. A sincere, unpretentious offering consistent with the winery's style and the expectations of an audience that prefers accessible, pleasant reds.
