Winery

The PaoloLeo winery is divided into two wine cellars, the first is located in the heart of Salice Salentino DOC (San donaci) the second, inaugurated in'August 2020, is located at the gates of Primitivo di Manduria DOC (Monteparano). The winery is flanked by the agricultural one, which has more than 70 hectares and a very old 16th-century farmhouse surrounded by vineyards. Paolo Leo, born in 1960, was born into a family where making wine was an inevitable inheritance; And today it is still an heir, the eponymous Paolo Leo, Nicola's son, who leads the new winery, together with his wife Roberta and sons Nicola, Stefano, Francesco and Alessandro, flanked by loyal collaborators. For years present on the Apulian and international market, it has always operated with respect for the environment and its territory rich in tradition and history. Vines are grown on predominantly calcareous clay soils, with more sandy areas and others with emerging rock , with a mild climate that have made Salento, a fertile sub-region of the Puglia region that bases its economy on agriculture.

Description

The "Salentop" line was created to enhance the territory of Salento. All the wines are produced from ancient vines grown as alberello vines over 50 years old. Primitivo di Manduria Riserva "Giunonico" is produced by Paolo Leo's estate in the Sava area. In this area, the Primitivo vine expresses itself with particular richness and with grapes that reach very high degrees of sugar concentration. The vineyards deputed to the production of the Riserva are over 70 years old and are still raised according to the ancient method of the alberello of Greek origin. It is a perfect wine for those who love above all power and concentration. It is a red wine with ripe richness and sweetness of fruit, with a harmonious and round character and great structure.

Organoleptic characteristics: 

Garnet-red color with typical purplish highlights. The bouquet is expressed with typically fruity aromas, blackberry, fig and black cherry turning to toasty notes. On the palate it is full-bodied, soft and enveloping with a velvety tannic texture. Echoes of sweet spice notes of long persistence

Storage time: 

5-10 years old

Vinification 

Temperature-controlled alcoholic fermentation at 25 degrees with 15-day skin maceration and aging 20 months in 50-hectoliter oak barrels
