Product Overview
Winery Notes:
"Calafuria is produced from vineyards that extend along the Adriatic coastline. Its name comes from one of the over 700 bays on the Apulian peninsula. The region boasts a long tradition for the production of rosé wines made from Negroamaro, a variety that best expresses its full potential near the sea. Calafuria is a rosé that is delicate, pleasantly fruity, savory and well-rounded, reflecting the aromas and colors of its home territory, Salento.
Calafuria is a delicate pale pink color. Fruity, citrusy notes of pink grapefruit, orange blossoms together with delicate hints of jasmine and lime blossoms dominate the nose. The palate is pleasantly fresh with excellent aromatic persistence and a delicate savory note on the finish."

"A zesty rosé, with a pleasing, lightly macerated edge to the ripe, juicy wild strawberry and cherry fruit, backed by lip-smacking acidity and accents of blood orange peel, grated ginger and dried herbs. Drink now. 6,000 cases imported." -AN, 7/31/23
