Pure Vermentino, bred in Salento, not far from the beautiful sea of Puglia. An ideal environment for this grape that thrives and gives its best results precisely when it has the sea nearby. The grapes, harvested in a perfect state of ripeness and health, are brought quickly to the winery for processing after only a few hours. Temperature-controlled vinification preserves all the varietal aromas of the grape variety. Thus was born the Salento IGP Vermentino di Felline. In the glass it has a beautiful straw yellow color with obvious greenish highlights, a tangible sign of freshness and youth. On the nose, fruity notes of white peach, apple, white flowers and especially herbs. In the mouth it is simple but not trivial. Pleasantly fruity, with pleasant underlying acidity and interesting persistence.

Hints of white peach and mineral notes

Felline is a historic Apulian winery, protagonist of the success of a great wine such as Primitivo di Manduria DOC and a milestone within the project called “Accademia dei Racemi,” which gave impetus to the revival of many native grape varieties in the region.The winery’s name comes from a vast archaeological area of Manduria, a short distance from its renowned beaches, in which there are the remains of a very ancient city, Felline to be exact. Since the late 1990s Felline, in collaboration with other young and ambitious producers, has contributed to the enhancement of the area’s symbolic grape variety, primitivo. A project stimulated by a deep love for the territory and its traditions, which today places Felline among the most important wineries in the area, thanks to a complete range of wines including sparkling wines, whites, rosés and of course the reds typical of one of the most vocated areas of the Puglia region.
