San Marzano Susco Susumaniello Salento 2021 is a characterful red from one of Puglia’s most distinctive native grapes.

Once known for its generous yields, this historic grape is now being rediscovered for the elegance it can deliver when carefully handled.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this wine typically shows a deep ruby to dark purple hue, hinting at its concentration and ripe fruit profile. The nose is layered and expressive, with notes of blackberries, dark cherries, plum, and hints of spice, Mediterranean herbs, and subtle earthy tones. On the palate, it is usually rich yet composed, with dark fruit, supple tannins, and a fresh vein of acidity that keeps the wine lively and balanced. Its style suggests good mid-term aging potential, particularly over the next few years, as the fruit and structure continue to integrate. The old-vine origin adds complexity and helps give the wine a more polished, elegant finish than the grape is sometimes known for.

Viininvalmistus
This wine comes from old Susumaniello vineyards in Salento, where the warm Apulian climate, strong sunlight, and coastal influences help ripen the grapes while preserving freshness. The description suggests that the fruit was harvested from mature vines after the variety’s naturally high youthful yields had diminished, allowing for greater concentration and balance. Vinification is aimed at highlighting both the grape’s dark fruit intensity and its more refined, expressive side, resulting in a wine that combines richness with clarity.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Pair this wine with grilled lamb, roasted pork, beef ragù, aged cheeses, or Mediterranean dishes with herbs, olives, and tomato-based sauces. It also works well with hearty pasta dishes and roasted vegetables. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for about 30 minutes if possible to let the aromas open and the structure soften.
