Cantina Sava Susumaniello IGP 2022

Cantina Sava Susumaniello IGP is a distinctive red from Salento in Puglia, made from 100% Susumaniello - an ancient native grape that has seen a strong revival in recent years. Once largely overlooked and used in blends, Susumaniello is now celebrated for its ability to produce wines of both structure and elegance, deeply tied to the warm, sun-soaked landscapes of southern Italy.

Grown in the province of Taranto, where Mediterranean heat and well-drained soils encourage full ripening, this wine reflects the richness of the region while maintaining balance and freshness. Traditional fermentation with controlled maceration helps extract colour and structure, often followed by a short period of ageing to soften the wine and enhance its texture.

This is a modern expression of a rediscovered grape, full-bodied yet refined, with smooth tannins and a savoury edge, capturing the evolving identity of Puglia’s indigenous varieties.
