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

Numen is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, the world's most famous white grape variety, which can differentially express the territories where it is grown. In Salento, the Chardonnay from Paololeo wineries offers exemplary ripeness and a white wine of impressive structure.

Organoleptic characteristics: 

Intense straw yellow color. It has a complex bouquet of ripe white fruit with woody notes. Complex and elegant palate, very satisfying thanks to the long finish.

Storage time: 

4-6 years old

Vinification 

Crushing, pressing, cold maceration for 8-9 hours and alcoholic fermentation in American and French oak barrels. At the end of fermentation, the wine continues aging in contact with the noble lees, which are periodically raised through an operation called batonnage. The latter action elegantly increases the wine's structure and complexity.
