Leone de Castris | Puglia
Leone de Castris | Via Senatore de Castris | IT 73015 Salice Salentino

The Riserva from the great traditional line of de Castris captivates with intense cherry fruit and fine wood notes. Powerful, round and harmonious on the palate, with a wonderfully long finish. Every year a fantastic price-pleasure ratio! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright dark ruby. Very spicy nose bordering on animal, pepper, dried rose petal, then Amarena cherry, reverberating with pickled plums. On the palate then marked by beautiful juiciness and freshness, opens with delicate pressure, shows character, slightly salty, coherent palate progression." Falstaff

"A harmonious red, medium- to full-bodied, with silky tannins and well-knit flavors of crushed black cherry, espresso crema, violet and spice. A streak of rich, loamy earth is the savory underpinning that emerges on the chewy finish." Wine Spectator

"An alluring mix of clove, allspice, ginger and dusty rose rises up from the 2017 Salice Salentino Riserva. It's silky in texture yet lifted in feel, presenting a pure display of red and blue fruits giving way to exotic spices and sweet tannins that saturate toward the close. Notes of plum and licorice linger through the long, lightly structured finale." Vinous
