DRY ROSÉ WINE
2023
The exclusive Pizzicanto line of wines produced with passion in Torricella offers a superbly-balanced rosé: Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato. Delicate, like a cool breeze that caresses flowers in full bloom, joining a vibrant dance with the rosy petals. The Primitivo Rosato is the quintessence of territorial inspiration, a perfect synthesis of the scents and flavours of Salento. Light and refreshing, it amazes with hints of honey and blackberries, for a breadth of flavours that gracefully embraces sensations of refined elegance. Surrendering to such a sweet pleasure is the best that can happen to the wine enthusiast: the sensuality of Salento is a guide and inspiration for anyone who wants to experience a sincere, Mediterranean and delicately passionate Puglia.
Pizzicanto plays a game of glances: the Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato reveals itself in the glass, wearing a bright, intense and brilliant pink. The bouquet collects and enhances the olfactory notes characteristic of the territory, with delicate floral expressions and sugary notes of fruit. Tasting holds true to the character of Primitivo, proudly structured in body and changeable in the sinuous dimension of its aromas; sustained by a particularly accentuated fruity vein, it closes with a long and fragrant finish.
Format 0.75 l. (£ 18.65/lt.)
To arrive at such an expressive rosé, harvesting and soft pressing of the grapes must be conducted according to a score that cannot afford to miss a single note. To maintain intact the aromas and perfumes of the fruit, it is necessary to act with delicacy and precision. In a balancing game, the Pizzicanto Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato pirouettes between sweetness and freshness, without losing any trace of being proudly Primitivo. Here is all the passion of our Wine Makers of Torricella, the experience of those who through tradition and experience know the grapes and the sky, earth and scents of Puglia. The glass makes no secret of it but returns every caress, every thoughtful gaze, every sinuous movement and translates them into sensations that conquer at the first taste.
Pizzicanto Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato prefers to be matched with fish dishes, from the classics of Puglia to sushi. For balance and aromatic inspiration, it excels with crustaceans, enhancing their delicate flesh. It is also excellent partnering white meats, vegetable dishes and fresh cheeses. A versatile wine, capable of dancing to the rhythm of the dishes that it accompanies.
The proper serving temperature enhances the totality of characteristics of this wine and should be respected when you share a glass, to capture the rich range of nuances it offers. A brief decanting allows its charms to flourish. Just pour a glass of Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato and wait ten or fifteen minutes before sipping it: it will be a dip into the scents of Salento, a hint of summer and a delicate meeting of intoxicating pleasures.
