Production
The Susumaniello grapes are sourced from a 3 hectare plot on the Serranova estate. After harvesting and fermentation 60% of the wine refines for 12 months in 1st, 2nd and 3rd use Allier oak tonneaux, while the remaining portion remains in steel. After 12 months the wine is blended - it rests in concrete for a year before bottling, then a further 6 months before release.
Tasting notes
Aromas of ripe cherry and blackberry with hints of spice. The palate has layers of vibrant dark fruits and supple tannins with fresh acidity - silky and elegant on the finish.
Food match
Enjoy with rich tomato or meat pasta dishes, such as the local orecchiette with meatballs.
