The cantina (winery) had served delicious local snacks with equally enjoyable Vermentino 2009.Later at the sit-down dinner, one enjoyed Giancola IGT Salento 2008, a Malvasia Bianca followed by Saturnino 2008, an IGT Salento off-dry Rosé made from Negroamaro, Jaddico DOC Brindisi- a blend of Negroamaro, Montepulciano and Malvasia Nera.
