There’s a unique quality to this wine that recalls bramble, forest floor, cola and small berry fruit. The wine is big and intense with succulent, chewy tannins and sweet tea flavors. 1 Note

This blend of Negroamaro and Cabernet Sauvignon opens with dense, dark concentration and sweet aromas of blackberry jelly, Christmas spice and cinnamon. The wine is soft and chewy and tastes of overripe fruit such as dried prunes and raisins. 1 Note

Smells fortified and stewy—think Port, raisins and dried fruit. Ripasso-styled, with dry ,cedary-cooked fruit flavors in the mouth and on the finish. Full tannins, but not as integrated as we’d like. 1 Note

Here’s an easygoing red wine from Puglia with sharp tones of forest berry and bramble backed by red apple, raisins and a touch of cinnamon. The wine is nervous and slightly bitter in the mouth with flavors that recall sour cherries. 1 Note

A crisp and simple Chardonnay with bright notes of citrus and passion fruits, lime and green fruit. The wine is simple and light on the palate with a refreshing, zesty feel overall. 1 Note

Here’s a pleasantly fragrant blend of Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera that does a good job of delivering ripe berry notes that are intense, but not exaggerated. Black pepper, clove and chili notes are present but well dosed. Pair it with pecorino cheese or braised meats. 1 Note

This is a sweet-smelling Fiano from sunny Puglia that offers mature notes of yellow fruit, peach and melon. The wine is very thick and fat with lingering sweet notes and creamy, filling density. 1 Note

The Salento, or the tip of the “heel” of the boot of Italy, is an excellent area for rosé. Arguably it is the best. This expression made from native Negroamaro grapes offers a bright ruby color and sweet aromas of raspberry, almond and wild cherry. 1 Note

Here’s a jammy, syrupy and dense expression of Primitivo with chewy layers of black cherry, leather, spice and tobacco. There’s a sweet, overripe note in there as well that recalls strawberry comfiture and the wine is dense and chewy on the close. 1 Note
