The scent and taste of the Collezione Cinquanta
We can hardly wait to continue tasting this delicious blend. Let's start at the beginning: the aroma. The nose is broad, fine, and pleasant. A sensation. Your nose picks up notes of plums and red fruit jam. But also spices and a distinct presence of vanilla, brought about by the long oak aging. Time for a sip. Well, sit down for this one! Because you'll be blown away by this onslaught of flavors! Wow, wow, wow. Black fruit combined with spices, cocoa, and tobacco create a magnificent flavor palette. You'll want another sip, and that, in our opinion, is proof that this is a delicious wine! Collezione Cinquanta San Marzano is truly the pride of Salento. Cheers!
