ABOUT THIS WINE
Nero Grande is a modern, fruit-forward brand crafted by Femar Vini, an estate established in 1995 by Felice Mergè. While the winery is headquartered near Rome in Lazio, the grapes for Nero Grande are sourced from the sun-drenched vineyards of Puglia in Southern Italy. The brand is easily recognized by its bold, stylized 'NG' typography on the label. This specific bottling combines the rich, rustic character of Puglia's native Negroamaro with the structure and depth of Cabernet Sauvignon, offering an approachable yet deeply satisfying expression of Southern Italian viticulture.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are harvested at optimal phenolic ripeness from selected vineyards across Puglia. Upon arrival at the winery, the fruit undergoes gentle crushing followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Extended maceration on the skins is utilized to extract deep color, rich flavors, and soft tannins. A portion of the wine is aged in oak barrels to add complexity, roundness, and subtle sweet spice notes before final blending and bottling.
