Paolo Leo Pianerosse Nero di Troia

In its fifth generation, Paolo Leo is based in the Salento wine village of San Donaci. The story of this beautiful estate began at the turn of the twentieth century when Antonio Leo started to vinify the grapes grown in the vineyards of Masseria Monticello. The winery has enjoyed constant investment over the years and is today a modern winery with a barrel room housing 1000 French and American oak barriques. Mainly indigenous grape varieties are grown at this vineyard.

Grapes are destemmed and fermented with selected yeasts and malolactic fermentation. Matured for 3 months in stainless steel vessels.

Paolo Leo Pianerosse Nero di Troia wine is deep ruby red with violet tinges, pronounced aromas of ripe red fruit, currant jam and raspberries with hints of plum and black pepper. This wine is full-bodied, well balanced and fresh with a medium to long finish and a fruity and spicy aftertaste. Enjoy with roasts, game, cheeses , cured meats and first courses with intense and well seasoned sauces.
