About Tormaresca 2021 Rose, Calafuria
This wine comes from the Tormaresca's Masseria Maime estate near San Pietro Vernotico, a 1,235 acre estate close to the sea in the Salento DOC region. It runs along the Adriatic coast, creating a unique landscape of vineyards that are among woods and pine forests and continue until they merge with the sea.
100% Negroamaro The grapes were selected manually, delicately destemmed, and given a soft pressing. The must went into stainless steel tanks. Fermentation took place at 61° Fahrenheit to preserve aromatics of these brightly flavored grapes. A brief aging period in stainless steel tanks and a four month period of bottle aging preceded release.
Vinous scored this 91 points saying "The 2021 Rosato Calafuria is airy, fresh and sweetly scented with ripe melon, hints of mango, banana and sweet smoke. This is soft and round in texture, creamy even, with a lively twang of citrus-tinged acidity enlivening its ripe apple fruit and mineral underpinnings. This tapers off long and potent, yet it is incredibly fresh and perfumed. A pure pleasure. The balanced richness of this Negroamaro Rosato leaves a lasting impression."
