iMuri Negroamaro, Puglia, Italy
This Negroamaro is a full bodied glass of brambly black fruit with intense flavours of blackberries and blackcurrants. The velvety texture, lovely balance and savoury spice notes are very hard to resist. This is an excellent example of why Southern Italian reds are so popular. It offers serious value for money and over-delivers at the price point!
Excellent with or without food, and the perfect wine to enjoy on a Friday night.
The winemakers have been making wine in Puglia for over twenty years, and their philosophy is to let the fruit shine with minimal technical intervention. This is something which you can taste in every glass.
