I know Salice Salentino for at least 20 years. Like it. But this one is completely different. If it was a blind tasting, at the first swallow I'd say it's Bordeaux. Even after aerator. Wine matures fast, after some time in a glass it started showing some Italian notes. But still, nothing like Salice Salentino I got used to. Pretty good wine anyway.
Had it with smoked pork shops. Would be good with any meat, poultry, high-end fish.
