Masseria Li Veli Torrerose Negroamaro Rosato Salento IGT 2021 Review
Negroamaro is a grape native to Puglia, the heel of the Italian boot. The name translates to "black bitter", which is what it tastes like straight off the vine. It makes wonderful, food-friendly, medium-bodied reds with meaty, earthy fruit. As a rosé, this grape takes on a different personality. It sheds its savory vibe to reveal a spritely, super refreshing, dark pink wine. Like this one here. It retains its depth with mild acidity yet pops with complexity rivaling some casual Provence rosé.
