"Cantina Sava Malvasia Nera is a deeply coloured, full-bodied red from the sun-drenched vineyards of Salento. It opens with generous aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, and blackberry, layered with hints of clove, sweet spice, and a touch of vanilla from partial oak ageing. The palate is rich and velvety, showcasing luscious dark fruit flavours balanced by a gentle freshness that keeps the wine lively and moreish. Supple tannins and a long, smooth finish make this an inviting and versatile southern Italian red — perfect with roasted meats, pasta with hearty sauces, or aged cheeses."
