Pasqua’s 2005 Salento Negroamaro is a ridiculously good wine for the money. It possesses plenty of jammy dark fruit, along with the exotic herb, spice and earthiness aromas that are typical of this grape. This generous, delicious wine is best consumed on the young side. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2009. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel. (516) 677-9300, Vin Divino, Chicago, IL; tel.
