Negroamaro (Case of 6)
From the imposing Apennine Mountains to the sparkling waters of the Ionian Sea, Puglia is a wonderfully diverse and rich landscape located in the south-eastern corner of Italy. During our travels we have fallen in love with the vibrant flavours and Southern Italian charm that radiate from every part of this varied region. We want to let you in on a bit of a secret, Negroamaro is a fantastic regional red grape variety (you probably haven’t heard of it), but let us reassure you it’s a real favourite of the local ‘Pugliesi’ and ourselves alike. Undoubtedly over-delivering on quality, this award-winning wine offers the perfect balance between a fruit led Merlot and an intense flavoursome Malbec. Give it a go – you won’t be disappointed.
56% of all whale and dolphin species have been recorded eating plastic they’ve mistaken for food (source: WDC). By purchasing a bottle of Sea Change Negroamaro you are helping to fund research designed to protect marine animals like the Bottlenose dolphin so beautifully sketched by our designer Katie on the label of this wine.
Tasting Notes
Sea Change Negroamaro is bursting with red fruit and sunshine, and we think it really ticks all the boxes, especially with its velvety mouthfeel. Medium bodied with soft tannins, the initial burst of bright fruit is followed by a smooth, lingering finish. A real crowd pleaser.
Food Pairings
We recommend this wine as an accompaniment to any Italian dish, like a wholesome tomato-based pasta or crispy stonebaked pizza – both taste great alongside a glass of Sea Change Negroamaro.
Find yourself a new favourite wine from Sea Change, a social enterprise making waves of change with their eco-friendly wines.
These winemakers are committed to creating exceptional drinks and caring for our oceans in equal measure. Look closely at the beautiful hand drawn illustrations on each bottle and you’ll notice the marine animals depicted have bits of plastic inside, reflecting the effects of plastic pollution.
Keen to be part of the solution, Sea Change put real thought into their own packaging. There are none of those plastic wraps around their bottle tops and the labels are a mix of paper from certified sustainable forests and grape waste too. Even the corks are made from a renewable plant-based material.
Sea Change also gives back to conservation charities who help protect marine animals too, making a donation for every bottle sold. All this adds up to a lot of small ripples of change and one big positive impact per bottle. In fact, they've now donated a whopping €500,000 to charity.
Better still, there’s a great variety in their award-winning range. So you can toast to making a difference whether you’re partial to a prosecco, reds like negroamaro, whites like sauvignon blanc or a rosé.
