Vinification of the Talò Salice Salento DOP by Cantine San Marzano

The grapes for the Talò Salice Salento DOP come from a carefully selected growing area in the region of Apulia. The vineyards stretch over gentle hills, benefiting from both the sun and the cool sea breeze. This promotes the elegant development of the grapes. Harvesting is done by hand in the second half of September to capture optimal ripeness.

The vinification begins with a careful selection of the grapes. The grapes are then destemmed and lightly pressed. The must ferments at controlled temperatures, preserving the aromas optimally. After fermentation, the wine ages for several months in French barrique barrels to enhance its complexity and depth. This combination of traditional and modern methods results in a full-bodied and particularly expressive wine.
