Emporium Appassimento is a red wine crafted with Primitivo (Zinfandel) and Negramaro grapes, two indigenous varietals which grow in the land of Salento in Italy. It pays homage to an old century winemaking method that was widely practiced throughout Mediterranean countries and little changed since ancient times. During harvest, the best grapes are selected to remain on the vine for an extended period, until each grape is dried out concentrating its taste and aromas of ripe fruit, spices and tobacco.
