This Primitivo di Manduria DOC captures the distinctive personality of Puglia terroir. With 14.5% alcohol content, it offers a full-bodied and robust structure. Crafted from Primitivo 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from old sapling vines on arid red soils with calcareous-rocky substrate with high presence of iron oxides. Vinification: manual harvest with slightly overripe grapes, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in steel at controlled temperature. The wine is aged 18 months in French and American oak barrels. A wine showing the sun-drenched warmth typical of Puglia's Mediterranean climate.
The region's Mediterranean climate favours bold reds from Primitivo and Negroamaro.
