The Salice Salentino Riserva Leone di Castris 2020 presents a deep ruby colour with hints of garnet. On the nose, the wine reveals aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, and subtle notes of plum, complemented by a gentle earthiness and herbal undertones. The bouquet is enriched by a touch of spice, showcasing the influence of aging in oak barrels.
On the palate, this wine is structured with firm tannins and balanced acidity. The flavours echo the nose, with dark fruit taking the forefront and layers of tobacco and leather emerging with time. Made primarily from Negroamaro and complemented by Malvasia Nera, this Riserva undergoes aging for at least two years before release, reflecting traditional methods of the Salice Salentino region. The wine pairs well with hearty dishes, making it a versatile choice for various meals.
