Tasting Notes
The Bastioni della Rocca Puglia Appassimento opens with inviting aromatics of sweet cherries and red plums which are woven together with earth, tobacco, grilled herbs and hints of leather. Medium-bodied with a silky texture that gives way to flavors of cherries and plums that contine through the finish.
This Italian red wine is a specialty of the Salento peninsula, a blend of 80% Negroamaro and 20% Primitivo.

Scores
98 / 100"The 2021 Bastioni della Rocca Puglia Appassimento is powerful and dark. Aromas of sweet cherries and red plums are woven together with earth, tobacco, grilled herbs and hints of leather. Full-bodied and smooth with soft tannins a lingering depth of flavour on the finish."
