“The Wild Card”

Deep ruby-purple in the glass, this rare Puglian grape bursts with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and sour cherry, laced with violet and spice. The palate is juicy and vibrant with dark fruit wrapped in lively acidity, supple tannins, and a touch of Mediterranean herbs. Fresh but structured, it finishes with a savoury twist that keeps you coming back.

For when: you want something off the beaten path that still feels instantly likeable.
Pairs with: grilled lamb skewers, rich pasta dishes, or aubergine parmigiana.
If this wine were a person, it’d be the guest who surprises everyone with the best story of the night.

San Marzano champions indigenous southern Italian grapes, and Susumaniello, once nearly forgotten, has become one of their calling cards. Susco shows the grape’s wild, rustic energy polished into a modern, expressive red that still carries the soul of Puglia.
