Just as the “regular” Dolce (sweet) type, Salice Salentino Aleatico Liquoroso Dolce is a fortified dessert wine produced from the Aleatico grape, with the permitted addition of up to 15% Negroamaro, Malvasia Nera and Primitivo. The wine must have an alcohol content of maximum 16% +2% residual sugar.
After storing, this lovely wine becomes even more stylish and elegant than the regular sweet “Dolce” version, Salice Salentino Aleatico Dolce DOC. The wine has a more or less intense ruby red color, which gets purple reflections with age, and a moderately sweet, warm, harmonious and tempting taste.
When Salice Salentino Aleatico Liquoroso Dolce DOC is aged for 2 years, the word “Riserva” must be mentioned on the label.
Enjoyed for desserts.

That Italy in 2011 was the worlds largest wine producer?
Most tourists who have visited Valle d’Aosta (Aosta Valley), have probably never given the region’s name or wines a second thought. Here it’s about skiing on the dramatic slopes around Breuil-Cervinia, at the base of the gigantic mountain, Matterhorn. But the region offers exciting things to do in the après-ski department.
