The Valle D'Itria Verdeca IGT by Giovanni Aiello, also known as "Chakra Rosso," represents a unique expression of one of Puglia's most prized indigenous grape varieties, Verdeca. This white wine stands out for its refinement and its ability to authentically and freshly interpret the area it comes from.

Chakra Rosso is made exclusively from Verdeca grapes, hand-harvested from vineyards located in the picturesque area of Valle d'Itria, famous for its trulli and fertile red soil. The microclimate of the region, characterized by significant temperature fluctuations between day and night, helps in developing and preserving the aromatic profile and acidic liveliness of the grapes.

Visually, the wine presents a light straw-yellow color with green reflections. On the nose, it opens with intense aromas of white fruits such as pear and peach, enriched by floral hints of hawthorn and light mineral nuances. On the palate, Chakra Rosso surprises with its perfect balance between freshness and body, with a pleasant acidity that makes it particularly lively and enduring.

Ideal as an aperitif, the Valle D'Itria Verdeca IGT by Giovanni Aiello also pairs wonderfully with fish dishes, seafood, and fresh cheeses. It is also an excellent companion for light and vegetable-based dishes, enhancing every flavor with its elegant and effortless presence.

A bottle of Chakra Rosso is not just a wine, but a true sensory exploration of Valle d'Itria, offering a taste of those winemaking traditions that only southern Italy can deliver. Fascinating in its simplicity, this wine knows how to captivate those who seek an authentic and deeply rooted territorial story in their glass.
