Description
What kind of wine it is
Morso Rosso Susumaniello by Tenuta Viglione is an organic red wine with Typical Geographical Indication from Puglia, boasting an enveloping character, made from Susumaniello grapes. This wine, fermented in French oak barrels, displays an intense and floral aromatic profile, enriched with clear notes of cherry, violet and black olive. On the palate, it reveals a vigorous texture, supported by a pronounced acidity and refined tannins that lead to a harmonious finish.
Where it comes from
The grapes are grown in the Murge area, cultivated in spur-pruned cordon vineyards located at four hundred metres above sea level. The exposure of the rows and the nature of the calcareous-clay soils create an ideal environment for the ripening of the bunches. Harvesting takes place in the last ten days of September, enhancing a Puglian territory renowned for its balance between freshness and intensity.
How it is produced
The process begins with alcoholic fermentation in French oak barrels, followed by a six-month period during which part of the batch undergoes maturation in wood. This technical approach gives the wine a solid body, characterised by a notable dry extract and well-balanced acidity. To fully appreciate its essence, it is recommended to decant for an hour before serving at 18-20 °C, making it ideal paired with flavourful first courses and mature cheeses.
