The 2014 Cosimo Taurino 'Notarpanaro' Salento Rosso is a mature, robust red from Puglia made primarily from Negroamaro. The nose is deep and savory, featuring baked plum, dried figs, and cloves with tertiary notes of leather and tobacco. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, showcasing integrated tannins and a warm, Mediterranean character. The finish is long, earthy, and spicy. At over a decade old, this wine is currently in its prime drinking window.
