Salento Fiano IGT Apulo 2021 Masseria Altemura

The Àpulo Bianco of Masseria Altemura is a white wine produced mainly from Fiano grapes, from vineyards located in the magical Salento terroir, with an extraordinary exposure to the sun and cool breezes with a mitigating effect from the Ionian and Adriatic seas. The soil is characterized by white limestone rocks and the characteristic red soil of Salento.

Once harvested, the Fiano grapes and other complementary white grape varieties harvested within the estate undergo a soft pressing. Fermentation for 5-6 days follows at a temperature of 17 ° C. The wine ages for 3 months in steel and for a short period in glass.

It has a bright straw yellow color with slight greenish nuances. On the nose it expresses itself on fruity tones of peach, grapefruit and lemon peel, followed by floral notes of orange blossom, jasmine and lemon balm. In the mouth it is fresh and lively, with a perfect correspondence of the sensations perceived on the nose.

Perfect as an aperitif, it is ideal to accompany the whole meal. It is recommended in combination with fish and shellfish dishes but also with white meats cooked on the grill.
