Cantina Sampietrana Squinzano Riserva DOC
Description
Cantina Sampietrana Squinzano Riserva DOC is a bold, complex, and deeply rewarding Italian red wine from Italy's Puglia region that beautifully captures the sun-drenched soul of its origin by blending intense dark fruit purity with a rich, oak-aged elegance. On the nose, this characteristic Southern Italian blend of Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera shows an expressive bouquet of ripe blackberries, juicy plums, and fragrant black cherries, seamlessly layered with subtle notes of dried oregano, thyme, sun-baked earth, and oak-derived vanilla. The palate is dry, full-bodied, and beautifully balanced, offering a refined texture with lush flavours of dark fruit compote and tart cranberry supported by firm yet velvety tannins, a touch of cocoa, and a lively acidity that keeps its richness energetic and focused. The finish is long, savoury, and deeply satisfying, lingering on notes of black pepper, warming spice, and subtle earthiness, making it a perfect pairing for grilled ribeye steak, roasted lamb, wild boar ragout, or mature Pecorino Romano cheese.
