'Octagonal' Castel del Monte Nero di Troia Riserva DOCG Torrevento 2014

The Nero di Troia Riserva 'Ottagono' from the Torrevento company is a splendid example of an intense and balanced red wine from Puglia. The vineyards from which the grapes with which this wine is produced are harvested are located in the area near Castel del Monte, in an ancient vineyard right at the foot of the castle. Made by vinifying the vine of the same name alone, this wine bears witness to the high quality levels achieved nowadays with this type of grape. The Nero di Troia Riserva 'Ottagono' is left to macerate for eight months in cement and then aged for twelve months in large oak barrels. Production quality and taste balance are the result of a work carried out with patience by the company, which realizes one of its best expressions in this product. Thanks to its structure, this wine has an excellent ability to evolve over time. In fact, if left to rest in the cellar, it can express itself well even up to five years of aging.
