Why Choose San Marzano 'Anniversario 62'?
A Heritage of Excellence
Founded in 1962 by 19 dedicated growers, Cantine San Marzano is now one of Puglia’s most respected cooperatives, with over 1,200 growers committed to preserving traditional techniques while embracing modern winemaking. The winery was named ‘Cooperative Winery of the Year’ by Gambero Rosso in 2022.
Exceptional Vineyard Conditions
The Primitivo grapes are harvested from old bush vines grown in the prestigious D.O.P. Primitivo di Manduria zone. Planted in mineral-rich red soils with excellent drainage and sun exposure, these vines produce intensely flavoured, concentrated berries.
The 2019 growing season featured a rainy winter followed by a hot, dry summer—ideal for ripening grapes with balanced acidity and full maturity.

| Winery | The grapes come from the central area of D.O.P. "Primitivo di Manduria", grown in ancient San Marzano and Sava vineyards. They are planted at a density of 5,000 bush vines per hectare. The soil is mainly red with a fine texture and is generally calcareous with few emerging rocks. The renowned red hue of the 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 diurnal temperature range, which positively influences the quality of the grapes, concentrating the flavours in the berries. The harvest takes place during the second half of September. |
