Luccarelli Puglia Negroamaro 2024 is a deeply coloured, richly flavoured red from the sun-drenched Salento region of Puglia — crafted from one of southern Italy’s most fascinating and characterful grape varieties. Deep ruby with hints of purple, an intense and savoury aroma of blackcurrants, dark berries, and spice, and a medium-bodied palate that is velvety smooth, perfectly balanced, and finishes fresh and satisfying.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
Deep ruby red with hints of purple — the rich, vivid colour of a Negroamaro from the iron-rich red soils of Salento, grown on calcareous rock and crafted with 8–10 days of temperature-controlled maceration for depth, colour, and character.
Aroma
Intense and savoury — a harmonious combination of blackcurrants, dark berries, and spice, with the dark bitter chocolate complexity and plum and prune depth that the finest Negroamaro from the heel of Italy’s boot consistently delivers.
Palate
Velvety smooth and perfectly balanced — medium-bodied, with rich dark berry fruit, savoury spice, and the plum and prune complexity that 4–5 months in used American and French oak barriques adds without overwhelming the variety’s inherent character. Fresh and satisfying on the finish.
Pairs With
A natural partner for pasta dishes, slow-cooked meat dishes, and medium-aged cheeses — the velvety texture, dark berry depth, and savoury finish make Luccarelli Negroamaro a deeply versatile and satisfying companion for the table.
