Tasting Note

Beautiful ruby red in colour, with distinctive aromas of ripe plum, blackberry, blackcurrant but also leather and sweet violet. Full-bodied in the mouth but never tiring, silky tannin and lingering taste reminiscent of licorice and coffee.

Product Notes

Li Veli Passamante Salice Salentino DOC wine hails from the Salice Salentino region in Italy. This elegant red wine possesses remarkable velvety smoothness, balanced by an exquisite full body. It is predominantly made from Negroamaro grapes, adding a unique bittersweet note. On the nose, it carries delightful scents of black fruit and spice, while the palate offers rich flavours of ripe red berries, plum and a hint of vanilla. Perfectly blended tannins and acidity create a lingering finish, making this wine a delightful choice for pairing with hearty meat dishes and mature cheeses.
