“MLV” Masseria Li Veli Salento IGT

A well-balanced red from Masseria Li Veli in Puglia's Salento region, this 2020 blend marries Primitivo's ripe dark fruit character with Cabernet Sauvignon's structure. On the nose, bold dark cherry and raspberry lead, followed by hints of smoke and black pepper. The palate is full and rounded, with smooth tannins and a mix of red and dark fruit that fills the mouth without heaviness. Spice notes add complexity without overwhelming the fruit-forward profile. Eminently drinkable and versatile at the table.
