Cantine Sampietrana, Settebraccia 2019

Get to know: Cantine Sampietrana Settebraccia

A rich and luxurious Italian red wine from the sun-drenched vineyards of Salento.

Tasting Note

Cantine Sampietrana Settebraccia is a powerful blend of Negroamaro and Susumaniello that delivers intense fruit character balanced with warm, savoury spice. .Deep ruby in colour with aromas of jammy black fruits, vanilla, clove, and subtle hints of spice. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and rounded, with rich flavours of black cherry, plum, and baked berry, supported by soft tannins and a warm, velvety texture. Finishes long and lingering with a touch of oak and a hint of savoury spice. This southern Italian red combines traditional bush-vine cultivation with careful oak ageing, making it a perfect choice for hearty meals or slow, relaxed evenings

Top food pairings:

  • Vegan aubergine parmigiana with rich tomato sauce
  • Slow-roasted lamb shoulder with rosemary and garlic
  • Aged cheeses such as Pecorino or mature Cheddar
Kate Says

"This is a big, serious wine from the south of Italy made from the wonderfully named grapes Negroamaro and Susumaniello. Rich, full of character, and a perfect choice for a gift or a cosy dinner."

Producer Info

Cantine Sampietrana has been crafting expressive wines in the heart of Salento, southern Puglia, since 1952. Their Settebraccia range pays homage to the region’s traditional farming tools and deep roots in the land. The estate’s old bush vines in the clay-limestone soils of Brindisi deliver low yields with concentrated flavours, while sustainable practices and minimal intervention in the vineyard and cellar ensure authentic, characterful wines.

How it’s made:

  • Varieties: Negroamaro – Susumaniello
  • Hand-harvested in early October, selecting the ripest and partially dried grapes
  • Gently crushed to preserve fruit integrity
  • Fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to retain purity
  • Aged for 6–8 months in French and American oak barrels to add structure, depth, and savoury notes

Good to know:

  • Region: Salento, Puglia, Italy
  • Style: Red, still, full-bodied
  • Closure: Cork
  • Vegan: Yes
  • ABV: 14.5%
  • Vintage: 2024

Why we love it:

This Salento red wine delivers layers of rich, jammy fruit, gentle spice, and velvety tannins. Its full-bodied style and balanced oak make it ideal with roasted meats, hearty vegetarian dishes, or simply savoured on its own.
