Another of the enterprising Valentino Sciotti.s projects, Tufarello is made by the Farnese winemaking team at their winery where the talented young Marco Flacco is in charge with Alberto Antonini as consultant. The wine is made from the Uva di Troia (also known as Nero di Troia) grape that is grown around Canosa di Puglia. The name attests to its Greek origins (Troy) and it is said to take its name from the nearby town of Troia, named by the Greek invader Diomedes.
Great depth of colour and an exuberant nose, with perfumes of spiced cherries. On the palate it has a powerful, sour cherry and blueberry fruit character with supple tannins, good acid and a long, spiced finish.
