Cellar
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 at the gateway to Primitivo di Manduria DOC (Monteparano). The winery is flanked by an agricultural company that owns more than 70 hectares and an ancient 16th century farmhouse surrounded by vineyards. Paolo Leo, born in 1960, was born into a family where producing wine was an unavoidable inheritance; and today it is still an heir, the eponymous Paolo Leo, Nicola's son, who runs the new winery, together with his wife Roberta and sons Nicola, Stefano, Francesco and Alessandro, flanked by loyal collaborators. The company has been present on the Apulian and international market for years, and has always operated with respect for the environment and its territory rich in tradition and history. Vines are grown on predominantly clayey-calcareous soil, with sandier areas and others with emerging rock, with a mild climate that has made Salento, a fertile sub-region of the Puglia region, which bases its economy on agriculture.
Description
From grapes vinified in white and processed with the Charmat Method comes ROSAROSE BLANC, a pleasantly drinkable sparkling wine, rich in aromas reminiscent of Salento, with the freshness and emotion conveyed by the bubbles.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Brilliant, light straw yellow colour.
Excellent persistence and fineness of perlage
On the nose, clear aromas of white flowers and citrus fruits, with some hints of peach, medlar and tropical fruits.
The palate is fresh and soft, well balanced. Long and pleasant finish.
Storage time:
2-3 years
Vinification
The crushed grapes are cooled to 12-14° and sent to the pneumatic press. The must is then crushed and cleaned through static decantation lasting 18-24 hours. Alcoholic fermentation lasts 10-12 days at a controlled temperature of 15-16° C. Almost immediately after finishing fermentation, filtration is carried out.
