Discover the authentic taste of Southern Italy with Messer del Fauno’s 2021 Salice Salentino – a remarkable red wine crafted in Puglia’s sun-drenched vineyards. This expressive blend showcases the indigenous Negroamaro grape (95%) elevated by a kiss of Malvasia Nero (5%), creating a bold yet balanced flavor profile that captures Puglia’s terroir in every sip.

Experience vibrant tasting notes:
Indulge in layers of sun-ripened cherries and wild berries, artfully woven with distinctive hints of Mediterranean eucalyptus and white pepper spice. The medium-bodied structure delivers satisfying intensity without overwhelming the palate – perfect for both casual enjoyment and special occasions.

Traditional craftsmanship shines through:
Our winemakers honor Puglian heritage through natural vinification without concentrated musts or additives. This commitment to purity allows the grapes’ authentic character to flourish, resulting in a wine that’s both robust and elegantly refined.

Versatile aging potential:
Enjoy its youthful vibrancy now for lively fruit expression, or cellar bottles to discover how it transforms into a luxuriously velvety red wine with time. This dual personality makes it an exceptional value among Italian wines – equally impressive served with hearty pasta dishes or aged cheeses.

Ideal for enthusiasts seeking authentic regional wines from Italy, this limited-production Salice Salentino offers an unforgettable journey through Puglia’s winemaking tradition in every glass.
