Graticciaia Salento Rosso IGT 2015 MAGNUM (Original Holzkiste)

This red wine, made exclusively from Negroamaro grapes, is an Italian original of international fame: the particular production process is reminiscent of Amarone and Sforzato, with the grapes dried outdoors on the kiln, without the use of technology and following ancestral methods. Still dry, this straw wine has been one of the most interesting red wine specialties of Puglia for decades, with concentrated aromas of Amarena cherries and some cigar box. Still dry on the palate with lush berry fruit, while balanced and harmoniously structured. The name of this wine legend is Graticciaia. - Gerardo [TS06/16]

Gerardo's Notes: 'Careful selection of Negroamaro grapes from old vines and raised as seedlings. The grapes first ripen and then are stored on racks to dry. The name of the wine Graticciaia derives from the space where the grapes are stored on light wicker racks made of woven reeds. When drying is complete, the grapes are used to make wine. The physiological processes in the grape - and the fermentation of the grape must - must take place in late autumn, when the outside temperatures are lower, resulting in a completely different evolution than in traditional winemaking. The temperature of the grape must is strictly regulated during the slow fermentation and the first phase of aging takes place in small wooden barrels.
