Description

The San Marzano Collezione Cinquanta is a tribute to the winery's 50th anniversary and a testament to the rich winemaking heritage of Puglia. This wine is a captivating blend of Negroamaro and Primitivo grapes, carefully selected from the oldest vineyards in the region. The grapes are dried on the vine, which allows to increase the level of sweetness and flavors, increasing the concentration of the flavors. The blend of different vintages makes this wine an unique expression.

On the nose, the Cinquanta offers a complex bouquet of ripe black fruit, such as blackberry and plum, interwoven with notes of spice and a hint of balsamic. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with flavors of dark chocolate, ripe plums, and a touch of vanilla from oak aging. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, providing a long and satisfying finish. The wine displays a good balance and shows its potential over the next years.

The vineyards of San Marzano are located in the heart of Puglia, a region known for its warm Mediterranean climate and fertile soils. The winery is committed to sustainable viticulture practices, ensuring the health of the vineyards and the quality of the grapes.

This wine is a perfect accompaniment to rich, flavorful dishes such as grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and aged cheeses. Its full body and complex flavors also make it an excellent choice for sipping on its own, as an excellent after-dinner wine. This wine pairs well with osso buco, game dishes, and mature cheeses. It can be enjoyed now, or cellared for several years to further develop its complexity.

Serve the San Marzano Collezione Cinquanta at a temperature of 18°C (64°F) to fully appreciate its aromas and flavors.
