With its intense ruby red color accented by light violet hues, the Tormaresca Salento Primitivo captivates the eye. On the nose, it reveals dominant notes of red fruit, including black cherries and plums, intertwined with spicy sensations of licorice, vanilla, and tobacco.
The palate entry is soft and generous, showcasing a well-structured body sustained by an elegant tannic texture. This wine reflects the passion and confidence of the Antinori family in the immense potential of Apulia, particularly in the Salento region.
Tormaresca, meaning 'tower by the sea', draws its name from the ancient seaside towers that overlook the Adriatic Sea. This winery was established with the vision of producing top-quality wines from Apulia's indigenous grape varieties.
For an ideal pairing, consider serving this wine with rich pasta dishes, grilled meats, or aged cheeses.
Please drink responsibly.
