The nose opens with ripe black fruit, layered with warm spice and a subtle touch of vanilla from the oak.\n\nOn the palate, it is powerful and plush, with plenty of black cherry, blackberry and plum framed by spicy notes and a smooth, rounded finish. The oak brings a gentle sweetness without overpowering the fruit, adding structure and depth. This is a wine with immediate appeal, though it should also hold well over the next few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTenute Masso Antico is located in the centre of Puglia, near Salento, where warm conditions and traditional vineyard practices help preserve the identity of the local grapes.
