Description

  • Mature fruit
  • Cherries & coffee
  • Full bodied
  • Balanced

Deep ruby red with crimson reflections; rich of mature fruit, cherries and plums, with notes of coffee and black pepper. A full-bodied wine, soft and balanced, with a pleasantly lingering aftertaste.

Primitivo grapes grown in Salento, Puglia. Vines are grown at an altitude of around 100 m above sea level with high average temperatures and medium-low rainfall. The soil is shallow and medium textured (sandy loam).

Destemming of the grapes and maceration at a controlled temperature of 25°C as long as the alcoholic fermentation lasts. The next step is the soft pressing of the grapes and the consequent start of the malolactic fermentation. Aged in stainless steel tanks.

Food Pairing: ideal to pair with savoury first courses, red meat and hard cheese.

Excellent drop and the price makes it doubly attractive.
