Amativo

In the unspoken speech of a just whispered speech there are always two hearts, one receives by reading between the lines and the other tries not to reveal too much.This dynamic is the same that triggers short circuits between people.Every human relationship rests not so much on the words spoken as on those that have remained unspoken.

That infusion of silence, that rhythm full of ruby-colored penumbra is Amativo, the wine made from Primitivo and Negroamaro grapes from Salento.Vibrant violet and rose adorn the secure hold of this harmonious speech, which is partly silenced and, therefore, turned into wine.The Amative is the conjugation of the ancient atmosphere of the southern countries in the controra, that is the moment of the day accepted by all as a respite during the sieges of everyday life.A kind of concert of silence, perfectly performed by an orchestra made up of various human types.

When everything rests, the words are gathered together to give way to the very slow and sometimes surreal stillness that hovers between the rows, where the clouds and the shadows pass for the pleasure of wandering to the end, the pleasure of going upstream towards the beginning of time.
