2020 Montemajor Quattronotti Apassimento Salento IGT

A very good wine and entry into the world of appassimento style wines

An enjoyable wine from Puglia Italy that utilizes the appassimento method (dried grapes) to add hints of dried fruits and some sweetness. This offers good value considering typical examples utilizing appassimento can be much more expensive. Worth a try if you are seeking a starting point to explore this style, but if you’re already familiar with it, other options may be more appealing. This will pair well with beef and red sauce pasta dishes, however it is easy going enough to enjoy on its own.
