Product Notes

Cantele Amativo is a splendid Italian wine characterised by a smooth blend of Primitivo and Negroamaro grapes. Sourced from the sun-blessed region of Puglia, this full-bodied wine resonates with a rich, fruity tang, coupled with a hint of spice. Its palate highlights prominent berried nuances, particularly of blackberry and cherry. The flavour is further enhanced by notes of vanilla, derived from its ageing process in oak barrels. Appreciated for its tantalisingly long finish, Amativo embodies the passion and meticulous crafting of the Cantele family, making it not just a wine, but a delightful experience for connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes

Colour - Inexpugnable ruby red, offering the eyes a preview of the wines complex structure, flavors, and aromas. Nose - Notes of rose and violet emerge in a slow, long-lasting progression, giving way to wild fruit, dried fig, preserves, and vanilla. Palate - The same aromatic equilibrium reappears in the mouth, releasing delicate progressions of fruit and spice. The rich, balanced flavour of this wine’s components give it its distinctive imprint. And its extreme delicacy closes with ample, persistent flavors in the finish.
