Rena Riserva
Salice Salentino Doc Riserva
Wine of an intense red colour with garnet-coloured hints. To the nose fruity sensations of blackberry and black cherry, notes of basil and sweet spices due to the refinement in oak barrels. In the mouth it is smooth and balanced with a strong but never intrusive tannin. Long last finish. Very good with roasted meats and ripe cheeses.
Vinification
the grapes after a soft pressure and the separation of grape-stalk are submitted to particular maceration at checked temperature (20-22°C) for a period of 8-12 days. After the fermentation the wine is put to sharpen in oak barrels of different capacities for 6/12 months. It becomes “Reserve” after 2 years from the date of harvest
