DOLCENERA
NEGROAMARO IGT
THE EXCITING NEGRAMARO
The name Negroamaro, which identifies an Apulian red wine, according to some scholars, originates from Griko (a language spoken in some municipalities of Salento Greece) with the word Mavro, which means Black, and from the Latin term Nigro (Nero), which describes it the black color, impenetrable.
This anniversary is not accidental, but an indication of the strong bond existing between Greece and Puglia, confirmed by the presence of many Greeks among the founding fathers of some Salento cities in the hinterland and on the coasts.
