Puglia IGT Negroamaro Rosato 2024 Masseria Ficarigna

Negroamaro Rosato by Masseria Ficarigna is a rosé wine produced in the Puglia region of Italy, using only 100% Negroamaro grapes. The winery's name refers to the prickly pear plant, a symbolic fruit of Salento with a calcareous-clayey soil, excellent sun exposure and drainage capacity, which contributes to the quality of the grapes.

The vinification involves a short cold maceration on the skins for 6-8 hours, to obtain the characteristic rosé color. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 16-18°C, ensuring the preservation of the fruity aromas. The refinement is completed in steel for three months, enhancing freshness and vivacity.

It has a pale pink color with bright reflections. The bouquet offers fresh notes of red fruits, such as strawberry and raspberry, accompanied by floral scents of rose and violet, with a delicate hint of citrus. On the palate it is fresh, balanced and delicate, with a pleasant acidity and a fruity and persistent finish.

This rosé wine pairs perfectly with fish dishes, seafood, light appetizers and grilled vegetables, also offering an excellent choice as an aperitif.
