The grapes were destemmed and crushed, and they underwent cold pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation took place with indigenous yeasts before being gently pressed. Malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, which helped to soften the resulting wine before it was aged for 12 months in fine French oak barrels.
This generous, fleshy wine has dark berry fruit layered with chocolate and hints of spice. It is smooth and has great purity of fruit through to a long, sustained finish. It is quite delicious.

Winery | The vineyard is located in Salento, Puglia, where the vines are grown approximately 100 meters above sea level. The temperatures are relatively high over the summer, encouraging the berries to ripen evenly. The soil is predominantly clay with some rocks, which help drainage. The vines are old, gnarly bush vines over 50 years old and are planted at a density of 4,500 vines per hectare. The Primitivo is grown in the highly reputed area of Manduria, which is locally regarded as the best in Puglia. The harvest takes place in September when the grapes are slightly overripe. |
