Description:
Vines per ha: 5000 bush vines.
Production area: Very old vineyards selected in San Marzano and Sava. The soil is mainly red with a fine texture and a generally calcareous underground with few emerging rocks. The well-known redness of these soils is due to the presence of iron oxides. The climate is characterised by high temperatures all year round, very little rainfall, and a wide temperature range between night and day which has a positive influence on the quality of the grapes. This is the central area of d.o.p. ”Primitivo di Manduria.”
Vinification: Grapes are hand-harvested in advanced state of ripening. Maceration: 18 days on 80% of the mass, 25 days on remaining 20%. Thermo-controlled alcoholic fermentation with autochthonous yeasts at 24-26°C.
Ageing: 18 months in fine French and American wood barrels.
Ageing potential: up to 7 years.
Tasting notes: Intense ruby red color, wide and complex nose; fruity with a prune and cherry jam aroma and notes of tobacco. Slightly spicy. A full-bodied wine, soft and rich in fine tannins, with notes of cocoa, coffee, and vanilla on the finish.
Best served with red meat, game, savoury first courses.
