The Masseria Azzurra winery, owned by the<br />
De Corato family, was founded by Sebastiano<br />
De Corato in the late 1940s. Today, his<br />
grandsons farm 75 hectares of estate<br />
vineyards planted at high density. Their 2017<br />
Negroamaro is vibrant in colour with ripe<br />
fruits, plums and violet aromas. It is soft with<br />
sweet succulent fruit flavours, bitter cherry<br />
and a jammy finish. Negroamaro is planted<br />
on calcareous soils in the Salento peninsula<br />
at 50 to 80 metres.<br />
Bright ruby in colour, the<br />
Primitivo has a floral and<br />
cherry aroma with a slight<br />
hint of leather, giving a<br />
savoury edge to the wine.<br />
It is supple and rich with<br />
more succulent sweet<br />
dark fruits on the palate.<br />
Grapes were harvested at<br />
the end of August and fermented in tank with<br />
skin maceration for a week.<br />
