Description
What kind of wine is it
Jaddico Rosso Riserva by Tenute Rubino is a still red wine from Apulia, created from a blend of Negroamaro and Susumaniello. An expression of the Brindisi Rosso Riserva denomination, it reveals aromas of cherry, plum, chocolate and hints of tobacco. On the palate, it is juicy, vibrant and structured, supported by well-defined tannins that balance the softer notes. The intense sip culminates in a long, spicy finish, making it excellent for pairing with robust dishes such as game or braised beef.
Where does it come from
The grapes come from the Jaddico-Giancòla vineyards, located within the Brindisi area. The vines grow at sea level, sinking their roots into sandy soil that lends vibrancy to the wine. The plants are trained using the spurred cordon method, ensuring low yields per hectare to the total benefit of aromatic concentration. The entire agronomic management follows the principles of organic and sustainable production, guaranteeing healthy fruit and a coastal character that is extremely faithful to its place of origin.
How is it produced
The manual harvest takes place at the end of September. The bunches ferment in stainless steel, with a skin maceration at controlled temperature that fixes an intense, bright garnet colour. Once malolactic fermentation is fully completed, maturation is divided between stainless steel tanks and a careful passage in French oak barrels. The process concludes with a final rest in the bottle, a crucial stage to fully harmonise the aromatic profile before serving.
History and Curiosities
Originating from the vineyards of Jaddico-Giancòla by the sea, this organic Brindisi Rosso Riserva DOC is born from the union of Negroamaro and Susumaniello grapes, hand-picked at the end of September. The ageing process involves 14 months in steel and 8-10 months in French oak barriques. Awarded with the Quattro Viti, it offers a vibrant sip with a long, spicy finish, ideal for enhancing braised meats and mature cheeses.

Both the traditions of Salento and a vibrant entrepreneurial spirit have been passed down from Tommaso to his son, Luigi, who has since taken over with the support of his wife, Romina. Luigi has undertaken this entrepreneurial legacy, pouring all of his passion into the family’s winery and making it a global ambassador of Apulian viticulture.
After all, winemaking is an ancient art here in Jaddico: over the years, archaeologists have brought to light a Roman manor house filled with kilns, where Visellio—the owner of the estate—fired the amphorae used to export his wine to the four corners of the Roman Empire. At the time, this land was home to extensive vineyards and served as an important manufacturing center for wine containers.
