Today, we are a company that unites more than 1,200 collaborators in the \u003cb\u003ePuglia\u003c\/b\u003e region, in a strip of land between the Ionian and the Adriatic Seas. It is a \u003cb\u003estill red\u003c\/b\u003e, made with a \u003cb\u003eblend\u003c\/b\u003e of \u003cb\u003e50% Merlot grapes\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003e50% Primitivo grapes\u003c\/b\u003e. Merlot is a grape variety with black, bloom-covered grapes, much loved by the blackbird, from which it takes its name; the Primitivo grape is the precious DOP nectar of Manduria, the Apulian region. The soil in which these two vineyards grow is characterized by a clayey mix, with a good amount of skeleton and shallowness. The \u003cb\u003eharvest\u003c\/b\u003e is done manually using baskets, during the first half of September. The grapes undergo temperature-controlled \u003cb\u003emaceration\u003c\/b\u003e and alcoholic fermentation with selected yeasts for about 10 days. The \u003cb\u003eageing\u003c\/b\u003e of the must continues in French oak barriques for 4-6 months. The \u003cb\u003eTalò Primitivo Merlot\u003c\/b\u003e vines grow and develop near the sea and close to the Mediterranean scrub. The training system is unique, using small, ungrafted, bushes. Even very old vines have been recovered; some Primitivo vineyards date back 80 years.","brand":"San Marzano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46045765238955,"sku":"59695","price":13.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/san-marzano-talo-primitivo-merlot-salento-2024_59695_1_6dbae459-4c39-4f44-ba30-be10ea153fe2.webp?v=1773800922","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/en-dk\/products\/san-marzano-talo-primitivo-merlot-salento-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
