Negroamaro IGT Salento Rosato (Rosé): The Wine That Narrates the Sea
26 May, 2026
There is something extraordinary about the moment our Negroamaro becomes Rosato: its dark, ancient skin imparts to the must just a whisper of colour, just enough for that antique rose hue to appear in the wine, evoking sunsets over the Salento sea.
Here is a wine born from grapes cultivated in the limestone soils of Salento swept by pelagic winds, a wine that rewards those who can truly listen and tolerate no superficiality. On the nose, it evokes wildflowers and freshly-ripened red fruit; on the palate, its clean freshness flows like a May breeze. Fresh, vibrant, and surprising, it pairs perfectly with dishes that are as simple as they are refined, such as hand-cut tuna tartare: imagine it garnished with drops of citrus, a drizzle of local extra virgin olive oil, capers, and a scattering of freshly-gathered herbs. The result? A dialogue of mutual freshness, both born of the sea and nurtured beneath the light of the very same sun.
We suggest serving the Negroamaro IGT Salento Rosato at 10–12°C, pouring it slowly, as if sharing a delicate thought.
