Salice Salentino is one of Puglia's historic wine regions and the traditional home of Negroamaro, the variety that has defined the Salento peninsula for centuries. Situated between the Ionian and Adriatic Seas, the vineyards benefit from cooling maritime breezes that temper the southern Italian heat, allowing Negroamaro to develop its characteristic balance of ripe fruit, freshness and savoury complexity.
Masseria Li Veli has become one of the region's benchmark estates since the Falvo family restored the historic 19th-century property in the late 1990s. Combining meticulous vineyard work with modern, precision winemaking, Li Veli has helped redefine the image of Puglian wine—showing that the region is capable of producing reds of elegance and authenticity as well as power.
Made entirely from Negroamaro and matured in French oak, Passamante is a vibrant, contemporary expression of Salice Salentino. Bright sour cherry, red berries and subtle spice lead into a smooth, velvety palate with fine tannins and refreshing acidity that keeps the wine poised and remarkably drinkable. Modern in its purity and balance, yet unmistakably rooted in the traditions of southern Italy.
