2024 Negroamaro ‘Il Pumo’, San Marzano valentines Winemaker and owner of IllimisThe Velvet Rebel This Negroamaro is plush, smooth, and brimming with southern Italian charm. Aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and a touch of spice lead into a palate thats generous yet balanced juicy dark fruit layered with hints of cocoa and wild herbs. The texture is silky, the tannins soft, and the finish long, savoury, and moreish. For when: the nights young, the foods hearty, and good conversation is guaranteed. Pairs with: pizza, slow cooked
