Villa Santera Rosato I.G.T. 75 cl Leone de Castris

Soft pink color to the glass, bright to the eye. At the nose it gives initially pleasing floral nuances, then followed by hints that recall the pomegranate and the small red berries. The palate is soft and fresh at the same time, sliding in the drink and of good persistence.

Versatile in combinations, it is excellent to accompany ham omelettes.

HISTORY

Puglia is a region that in recent decades has undergone a radical change of image in the wine sector.

If once the wine grown here was intended as a "cut" product, today it is characterized by the great quality and potential, due to the presence of important indigenous grapes, almost exterminated.

Among all the present realities, surely there is one that can boast a secular history and an exceptional prestige: it is the Leone de Castris, a company located in the town of Salice Salentino, not far from the wonderful Lecce. This winery has an ancient history, dating back to 1655, when Oronzo Arcangelo Maria Francesco of the Counts of Lemos, falling in love with the Apulian landscapes, decided to sell part of his possessions in Spain to give life to the company. Later, in the early nineteenth century, the winery began exporting wine to France, Germany and the United States and, in 1925, with Piero and Lisetta de Castris, the first vintages were bottled under their own brand. From this moment the company history underwent a strong development, driven by the success of Five Roses, rosé wine icon of Salento produced in 1943 and immediately exported to the USA. Today the Leone de Castris is run by Piernicola, nephew of Piero and Lisetta and son of Salvatore Leone de Castris, and spread over an area of ​​250 hectares with an annual production of about 2.5 million bottles.
