Tasting Notes: From larger-than-life winemaker Ninì Palamà, comes this powerfully built, yet enchantingly elegant Negroamaro named for Ninì’s father and mentor, Arcangelo. This vibrant Negroamaro from Salento is at the cutting edge of Puglian winemaking today. Clean, yet not stripped of character, it boasts layered aromas of steeped spices. A fantastic value, we would humbly place this wine amongst the best, most expressive, fresh-style wines from anywhere.
