On the palate, it is full-bodied yet remarkably fresh, with lively dark fruit, moderate acidity and smooth, silky tannins. The combination of concentration and freshness leads to a long and persistent finish. Produced from Negroamaro grapes selected from Vetrère’s oldest vineyards, the fruit is carefully hand-selected at harvest and vinified under controlled temperatures. The wine then matures for 12 months in wooden barrels, with a further 12 months of bottle ageing recommended to allow its fruit, tannins and oak complexity to integrate. Lago della Pergola highlights the depth and Mediterranean character of Negroamaro, one of Puglia’s most important indigenous red grape varieties.
