vinification

Primitivo grapes benefit from warm climate with plenty of rain, as well as long hours of sunshine and soil that contains limestone, clay or sandstone. All of which, combined, give the grapes strong aromas and appealing structure. The grapes are harvested at two different times: one part when full ripeness is reached, the other as a later harvest.

Deep ruby red colour.
Sweet berries.
Soft, smooth and extraordinary aromatic with aromas of blackberry,
cherries and forest fruits. Very well-balanced and full-bodied.

Goes well with red meat, mature cheeses and hearty pastas.

region

The Apulian climate is warm and temperate, with significant rainfall all year round. During the summer, the African winds cause rapid and marked rise of the thermometer and high temperature variation.
