- A delicate peach-blossom-pink colour. On the nose, its alluring bouquet offers aromas of pineapple, pink grapefruits, and apricots accompanied by floral sensations of jasmine and orange blossoms. The palate is pleasantly fresh and savoury, closing with a pleasing citrusy finish. A wine that shows the charm of balance in contrasts. A reminder of the energy and beauty of natural elements combined with an exquisite and graceful soul.
Each grape variety was hand-harvested separately, destemmed, and gently pressed. The must was chilled to a controlled temperature of 12 °C (54 °F) to allow for natural clarification and then transferred to stainless steel vats where alcoholic fermentation took place at a constant temperature of 16 °C (61 °F) to preserve and enhance aromatic compounds of each grape variety. After several months of ageing on the lees in stainless steel vats and after meticulous tastings, the various lots were blended. The wine was then bottled and later released for sale.

| Winery | In the mid-1990s, Piero Antinori travelled to Puglia with Renzo Cotarella on an exploratory trip that he says opened their eyes to the area’s potential. “It was immediately clear to us that though this region had a proud history and ancient grapes that dated back to the days of the Magna Graecia, it had yet to blossom fully in oenological terms.” Together, they took the reins of the Tormaresca estate in 2009, championing indigenous grape varieties from the Salento and Primitivo di Manduria DOC area in a new dawn of quality Puglian wine. The estate works with Fiano Pugliese, Negroamaro, Primitivo, and Aglianico – Masseria Maime is regularly one of Puglia’s best. The Chardonnay-ripe Pietra Bianca has been monikered the ‘Cervaro of the south’. Vineyards are planted unusually densely, giving extra depth to fresh, vibrant and elegant wines thanks to the abundant sunshine and wave-kissed terroir. |
