In southern Italy, Puglia to be precise, lies the A6mani wine estate. Three cousins combine their cultures and passions for wine here, creating exquisite wines. They own excellent vineyards and have been producing wines from indigenous grapes since 2011. They aim to reflect the beautiful region and its potential. They use organic and biodynamic methods in the vineyard and minimize intervention in the cellar, thus preserving the pure flavors and aromas of the grapes. In addition to the popular Negroamaro grape, they also offer wines made from varietals such as Primitivo, Susumaniello, and Fiano. Each of these wines has its own unique flavor profile, reflecting the diversity of the Puglia region. A6mani wines are highly regarded by connoisseurs and regularly receive awards and accolades.
The Malvasia Nera and Negroamaro grapes are grown in the vineyards of Salento. At an altitude of 100 meters above sea level, the grapes enjoy moderate temperatures, resulting in concentrated grapes. The vines are deeply rooted in clay soil, which provides a good foundation. The grapes are harvested mechanically in early September and then taken directly to the winery. Here, they undergo temperature-controlled maceration and a gentle pressing. After pressing, alcoholic fermentation takes place, after which the wine is aged for several months in stainless steel vats.
Thanks to the maceration, the color has developed beautifully, and the Lifili Salice Salentino emerges with a ruby red hue in the glass. The aromas are diverse, with cherries, plums, and light spicy notes. The palate is full-bodied with beautiful structure. The fruity notes are clearly evident and continue into a pleasantly refreshing finish. Delicious paired with red meat dishes or a cheese board with savory cheeses.
