Luccarelli Negroamaro 2024

Andy Says: "Negroamaro, one of the primary grapes of Puglia translates to "black bitter" which might not be doing it any favors from a marketing standpoint. But the wine tells a very inviting story! Rich and full bodied, with flavors of plum, black cherry, licorice and black pepper and a touch of earthy depth, this is the way to roll when you are in the mood for something bold and opinionated yet within your comfort zone."

Grown in Salice Salentino, Negroamaro, is said to have dominated the Salice vineyard since the 6th Century BC. Luccarelli sources grapes from hundreds of local growers trying to put this magnificent local varietal back of the map.
