Palamà, Arcangelo Salice Salentino D.O.C.
(ark-AHN-geh-loh SAHL-ee-chay sahl-ayn-TEE-noh)

 

Tasting Notes: Since 1936, the Palamà family has been making wine on their small estate in the warm climes of the deep South of Italia, in Puglia. This wine is expressive, rich, and robust on the palate, with an elegance that comes only from small productions and expert craftsmanship. With aromas of steeped plums, cracked pepper, blackberry confit, and cinnamon it is a heady, delicious experience.
