The Negro Amaro grape varietal

[Thomas]

It is used primarily in southern Italy; it, or its ancestor, was likely planted many centuries ago by Greeks; it was once the bulk wine workhorse of the south; it is often used to make a nice rosato; it is a red grape, and one of the ingredients in wines like Salice Salentino, Copertino, and Brindisi.

I believe it is one word: Negroamaro
