Menhir Salento. A Six Pack of Southern Italian Red Gems!
Menhir Salento. A Six Pack of Southern Italian Red Gems!
The wonderful region of Puglia at the very southern tip of Italy is producing some startlingly good wines, and Menhir Salento is one of its finest gems.
The wines are modern, sleek, suave & utterly delicious.
We are offering a six pack. Two bottles each of 3 fabulous cuvees taking you through the three quality levels offered by the winery.
2021 Primitivo is silken and strikingly supple for such a dark, brooding and handsome type.
2021 'Pietra' Susumaniello is a grape indigenous to southern Puglia, rich and deep, somewhat akin to a ‘ripasso’ style, offering fig compote complexity and incredible length.
2019 'Filo' Negroamaro 'Riserva' is an absolute gem! This has all the style, charm and elegance of a regal prince. Savoury yet sweet, light yet dense and even at this young age shows all the charm of a vinous older wine, excellent drinking in anyones book and extraordinary value for money.
