Luigi Rubino’s mission is to make the Susumaniello grape the flagship wine of his area in the Brindizi Province of Puglia. Oltreme, made from young vines, is a very friendly introduction to the grape’s charm. It has an appealing dark ruby color, exuberant fresh pomegranate, spicy red cherry fruit balanced with zesty acidity and finishing with dusty tannins.
