'Rohesia' Salento IGT Negroamaro Rosato Cantele 2021

The Negroamaro Rosato Rohesia Cantele 2016 is a fine wine originating from Gugnano in the province of Lecce. The story of the Cantele Cantele tells of the love of a man (Giovanni Battista Cantele) and a woman (Teresa Manara), and of the love for a land. It seems that, in fact, Teresa, accompanying her husband on one of his trips, did not want to leave Lecce anymore, giving life to the wine that bears her name. From the best vineyards of their estates, today, the heirs, grandchildren and great-grandchildren produce Rohesia Cantele 2016, a rosé wine that more than any other tells of the close relationship between this family and the splendid Salento, it is precisely this that makes each vintage unique . The vinification process is particular because the grapes are first gently pressed and then cooled quickly between 10 and 12 degrees Celsius: in this way the maceration times are reduced, which give life to a wine that can be consumed immediately or left rest for one or two years.
