Territory and wine style

The Salento IGT designation tells of a wide and recognizable area of Puglia, where the warm and breezy climate favors complete ripening of the grapes and, at the same time, good aromatic expression. The grapes come from Masseria Maìme, in San Pietro Vernotico, in the province of Brindisi, in a coastal area that contributes to the Mediterranean character of the wine. The 2022 vintage was warm and dry, but the described agronomic conditions allowed for the preservation of freshness and fragrance. The result is a contemporary rosé, bright and harmonious, with an elegant interpretation of the Salento territory.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a delicate peach blossom pink color. On the nose, it offers an inviting and well-defined bouquet, with sensations of nectarines, pineapple, and pink grapefruit, accompanied by floral hints of violet and lemon balm. On the palate, it is pleasantly fresh, savory, and smooth, with a consistent aromatic profile and a pleasant citrus return in the finish. The structure is lean but not trivial, supported by a dynamic drinkability and a balance that makes Furia di Calafuria suitable for both an aperitif and a casual yet refined table.

Recommended pairings

This rosé pairs with great versatility with seafood appetizers, fish salads, tartare, carpaccios, shellfish, and delicate first courses based on vegetables or seafood. It is also interesting with fresh cheeses, light fried dishes, Mediterranean cuisine, and simply prepared chicken or turkey dishes. Its freshness and citrus note make it enjoyable even with slightly spiced preparations, as long as they are not too structured or spicy.

Serving temperature

To best appreciate Furia di Calafuria, the ideal serving temperature is between 8 and 10 °C. Within this range, freshness, aromas, and taste tension are enhanced, keeping the wine lively and smooth. Prolonged oxygenation is not necessary: simply open it shortly before serving to enjoy its immediate expressiveness.
