About
Cupertinum Copertino DOC Riserva 2017 is a dry red wine produced in the Copertino area of Puglia in southern Italy. Crafted mainly from native Salento grape varieties such as Negroamaro, with the support of other traditional local grapes, it reflects the region’s warm climate and rich winemaking heritage. Aged to enhance depth and structure, this Riserva expression offers a true taste of the southern Italian terroir, showcasing both power and elegance.
Producer
The territory of Copertino is located in the middle of the Salento peninsula, on the hot land of Puglia, where the vine and centuries-old olive trees alternate with harmony. In 1935 thirty-six grape growers founded the Copertino Cooperative Winery, with the plan to cooperate and work directly with the treatment of their grapes, production and trading of the wine. Today, there are three hundred honourable members who give their harvested grapes constantly aiming to improve the final product.
Tasting notes
Aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, and blackberry are complemented by subtle notes of sweet spices, tobacco leaf, and cocoa. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, featuring dark fruit richness balanced by well-integrated tannins and savory undertones. A long, smooth finish with hints of dried herbs and balsamic character highlights its impressive maturity.
Pairing
This wine pairs beautifully with grilled red meats, slow-cooked beef dishes, and hearty stews. It also complements aged cheeses and rustic Mediterranean cuisine.

Negro Amaro
Negroamaro is a dark-skinned grape variety famous for its intensive ruby color, full and soft tannins and dark berry bouquet. It is gently aromatic and can produce very complex wines with distinctive warm tones of spices, chokolate and coffe.
This wonderful land is rich with olive trees and wine. However for a long time the Puglia region wines had a notoriety of being "flat" and highly alcoholic. Local winemakers were able to overcome this situation as the wine and become more diverse.
