PUER APULIAE – Castel del Monte Nero di Troia Reserve D.O.C.G. – Red wine – Rivera
Puer Apuliae or “Son of Puglia”: this is how Frederick II of Swabia was called, emperor of the thirteenth century who, with the Castel del Monte, left an indelible memory of himself to humanity. This wine of great character and elegance is a “Puer Apuliae” because it is obtained from an almost forgotten clone of Nero di Troia selected by Rivera in its Tafuri vineyard.
The vinification in a modern key and aging for 14 months in new barriques have made it possible to obtain a wine whose characteristic aromas of this variety, violet and star anise, are overwhelmingly supported by a very thick palate.
