Sellaia

Vino Rosato IGP Puglia

Sellaia is our interpretation of rosé wine, a wine that is inspired by the world of white wines, both for the way of production and for its characteristics. Well balanced alcohol content, good freshness and almost saline minerality.

IDENT
ITY

A rosé born from stone
Sellaia breaks with the classic Puglian interpretation of rosé and becomes a “wine-idea” that originates in a unique territory, thus becoming a “rosé” with strong identity, capable of standing out for its freshness, character, and versatility. Sellaia presents itself to the eye with an onion skin color, a pink different from the great rosés of Puglia.
Wild nature
In 2013, the “Jazzo” (traditional sheepfold) in the La Sellaia area, within the Alta Murgia National Park, inspired the name of our intense rosé and its visual identity. In 2021, the evocation of that rural world became even stronger, making the Wolf the protagonist of the label. The “jazzi” were shelters for sheep and a protection from their voracious suitor. The wolf, in fact, an antagonist to livestock and king of the woods, becomes the quintessential representative figure of the Murgia, a fascinating, wild, free figure with a strong personality—just like our Sellaia.
Full straw yellow color; after the first 2 or 3 years in the bottle, light golden hues become visible.

Intense nose, wide bouquet, opening with an array of aromatic herbs, sage and rosemary above all, followed by hints of citrus and touches of white-fleshed fruit.
Medium-bodied on the palate, an added value in terms of drinkability, excellent persistence and remarkable coherence with the nose.
The finish is elegant, supported by good acidity.
