Wine description

Looking for a wine that will surprise your taste buds? Look no further than the Primitivo Puglia IGP! Made from 100% Primitivo grapes with the utmost care and passion, this wine offers a deep bright red color and a full aroma with hints of red fruits such as plum and sour cherry, supported by a spicy note.

Produced using traditional vinification methods, the Primitivo Puglia undergoes crushing and destemming of the grapes, followed by maceration and fermentation at a controlled temperature of 22-26°C for 8-10 days. After a gentle pressing, the wine rests in the bottle, evolving and developing its harmonious taste, with the right level of tannins and a long finale.

Perfectly paired with grilled meats, pasta dishes, and aged cheeses, the Primitivo Puglia should be served at a temperature of 16-18°C and has an alcohol percentage of 14%. With a total acidity of 5.55 g/lt and a residual sugar content of 8.2 g/lt, this is a wine you won’t want to miss.
