Tasting Notes
Appearance
A luminous, pale pink hue that reflects the Mediterranean sun.
Aroma
The bouquet opens with intense yet refined aromas of pink grapefruit, peaches, and violets, interwoven with orange blossoms, delicate hints of jasmine, and lime blossoms. These fragrances offer a compelling combination of fruity, floral, and citrus notes.
Palate
On the palate, the wine is fresh, balanced, and vibrant, with bright acidity (5.35 g/l) and a clean, savoury undertone. Notes of pink grapefruit and peach continue through the mid-palate, supported by excellent aromatic persistence and a delicate saline touch on the finish. The residual sugar of 4.0 g/l and a pH of 3.26 provide a harmonious structure that’s both refreshing and food-friendly.
Winemaking Process
Crafted exclusively from Negroamaro grapes, the juice is left to age on the lees in stainless steel tanks, enhancing its texture and aromatic intensity. The meticulous vinification process preserves the freshness and purity of the fruit, making it a standout choice in the world of Italian rosé wines.

Winery | In the mid-1990s, Piero Antinori travelled to Puglia with Renzo Cotarella on an exploratory trip that he says opened their eyes to the area’s potential. “It was immediately clear to us that though this region had a proud history and ancient grapes that dated back to the days of the Magna Graecia, it had yet to blossom fully in oenological terms.” Together, they took the reins of the Tormaresca estate in 2009, championing indigenous grape varieties from the Salento and Primitivo di Manduria DOC area in a new dawn of quality Puglian wine. The estate works with Fiano Pugliese, Negroamaro, Primitivo, and Aglianico – Masseria Maime is regularly one of Puglia’s best. The Chardonnay-ripe Pietra Bianca has been monikered the ‘Cervaro of the south’. Vineyards are planted unusually densely, giving extra depth to fresh, vibrant and elegant wines thanks to the abundant sunshine and wave-kissed terroir. |
