“Salento's Negroamaro, dressed in pink.”
A rosé wine from Salento, in Puglia, made exclusively from Negroamaro grapes: a deep pink colour, notes of cherry, raspberry, rose and sage, an intense and lingering flavour. It comes from Cantina Monsellato, a few kilometres from Lecce.
Sixos is the Negroamaro rosé of Cantina Monsellato, a winery a few kilometres from Lecce. Here the sea air, the Mediterranean climate and the limestone and clay soils make the right home for Negroamaro, the native grape of Salento, the southern tip of Puglia. The result is a simple, authentic rosé that speaks of its land.
It carries the IGT Salento geographical indication and is an aromatic, full-bodied rosé. In the glass it shows a deep pink colour; on the nose and palate it brings fruity notes of cherry and raspberry, with a touch of rose and sage. The flavour is intense and lingering.

| 🌡️ | Cool, not ice-cold. Sixos has an alcohol content of 13% and should be served between 10 and 12 °C: that is the temperature at which the fruit and the long finish come through best. |
The producer
Sixos comes from Cantina Monsellato, a winery in Salento where the passion for wine has been handed down through generations. It combines traditional methods with today's technology, and from the grapes of this land it makes wines such as Negroamaro, Chardonnay and Primitivo.
Sixos is born of this way of working: a local grape, made into a rosé, to bottle the soul of Salento.
