Winery
Giovanni Aiello oenologist and wine producer who has increasingly established himself in the Apulian wine scene, even crossing international borders with great success. It is thanks to the'love for the vineyard and his land, Apulia, and it is among the rows of the Pyrrhic caanle that his adventure began. He studied oenology in the cradle of viticulture with ancient charm, in Veneto and Friuli, working among the sunny valleys of California and the distant hills of Australia, taking his roots everywhere. " It is said that wine is the most authentic expression of a territory, and I have always been convinced of this. That is why I chose to start from a simple idea: to produce wines that represent my land, a particularly fortunate and fertile area that runs through Putignano, Castellana and Fasano.
The "Chakra" line, with its hand-painted labels, refers to the essentiality of Apulian landscapes, made of living stone and colorful expanses of fields.
Description
Made from 100% Primitivo di Gioia del Colle grapes by Giovanni Aiello. The uniqueness of Chakra Rosso lies in the innovative technique used for vinification, called "vendanges entières," used for centuries in the most prestigious domaines of the Côte d'Or in Burgundy. Carefully selected clusters are used whole in open vats: in this way the elegance of the wine is enhanced and exalted, streamlining its body and enriching the bouquet.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Ruby red color, clear to the eye. The nose releases aromas of crisp fresh fruit, surrounded by intense spicy tones. The palate shows all its finesse, with elegant tannins accompanied by a good acidic presence.
Storage time:
2-6 years old
Vinification
Malolactic fermentation takes place in barriques and tonneaux, second-passage and third-passage. The wine thus rests on the noble lees until the following spring. Before release, the wine rests in bottle for the next 6 months.
