Susumaniello Salento Loris - Domiziano

The elegant Susumaniello Salento Loris from Domiziano flows into the glass with a bright purplish red. This Italian cuvée shows wonderfully complex notes of sour cherry, blackberry, currant, and plum in the glass. Added to this are hints of blueberry, forest floor, and garrigue.

The Domiziano Susumaniello Salento Loris presents itself to the wine enthusiast as pleasantly dry. This red wine never appears coarse or austere, but rather round and smooth. Balanced and multi-faceted, this dense, fleshy, and velvety red wine reveals itself on the palate. On the finish, this wine from the Apulia wine-growing region delights with beautiful length. Once again, nuances of raspberry and blackberry appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the clay-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of Domiziano Susumaniello Salento Loris

The basis for the first-class and wonderfully balanced cuvée Susumaniello Salento Loris from Domiziano are Malvasia Nera and Susumaniello grapes. In Apulia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay soils. After hand-picking, the grapes are immediately brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
