The delicious 2010 Salice Salentino Selvarossa Riserva is a bold and modern wine with thick lines and a very attractive level of aromatic heft and dimension. The blend is 90% Negroamaro and 10% Malvasia Nera. Aromas of black cherry, dried blackberry, spice, cola, herb and cinnamon stick rise from the glass. It shows a rich, opulent texture that wraps thickly over the palate. The tannins are seamless and soft, and the wine offers lovely plushness to soften any rough edges.
