Emporium Salento Appassimento hails from the sun-drenched vineyards of Puglia, a region in Italy renowned for its rich, robust red wines. This particular expression is crafted using the traditional appassimento method, where grapes are partially dried before fermentation to concentrate their sugars and flavors. The result is a wine that exudes a deep ruby hue and offers an opulent bouquet of ripe dark fruits like blackberry and plum, interwoven with hints of sweet spices and a touch of vanilla from oak aging.
On the palate, Emporium Salento Appassimento delivers a full-bodied experience with velvety tannins that envelop the mouth. The drying process not only intensifies the fruit characteristics but also contributes to a luscious texture and complexity that culminates in a lingering finish. Notes of figs, raisins, and chocolate emerge as it opens up in the glass, making it an excellent companion to hearty dishes or as a stand-alone sipper that commands contemplation. Its balance between sweetness and acidity ensures it can age gracefully over time while maintaining its distinctive profile shaped by both terroir and technique.

Rosso is a category of red wine primarily made from the Sangiovese grape, often blended with other varieties such as Canaiolo, Colorino, and Merlot. This wine style is celebrated for its vibrant flavor profile that includes notes of cherry, plum, and blackberry, complemented by earthy undertones and hints of leather and spice. The aromas are equally enticing, featuring red fruits like cherry and raspberry alongside floral notes of violet and herbal nuances from oregano and thyme.
Typically medium to full-bodied with moderate tannins, Rosso wines can range from smooth to slightly astringent depending on their age and winemaking techniques. Commonly produced in regions such as Tuscany (notably Chianti), Emilia-Romagna (Sangiovese di Romagna), and Lazio (Romania), these wines are versatile companions for various dishes. They pair beautifully with pasta in tomato sauce, grilled meats, pizza, or aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino—making them ideal for casual dining occasions or family gatherings.
