Description
Still red Primitivo di Manduria DOC, 14% ABV, produced by Terre Cevico. 0.75 L bottle, 2024 vintage. A wine that expresses the power and elegance of Primitivo, with grapes selected from low-yield vineyards in the municipalities of Avetrana and Manduria. Vinification involves fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, with 40% of the wine aged in first-use French and American oak barriques for 8 months, and the remaining 60% in stainless steel. Dark aromas of ripe currants and blackberries with a hint of oak on the nose. Dark purple in color. On the palate, explosive fruit flavors blend with a hint of herbaceousness for a powerful explosion of flavor that lingers. The finish is surprisingly long, with lingering notes of plum and spice. Ideal with grilled red meats and savory pasta dishes.

| Wine making | After de-stemming, the grapes are not crushed, allowing them to remain intact, reducing damage to the skins and optimizing colour extraction. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 23-25°C for 8 0 days. Frequent pump-overs and delestage are carried out during the fermentation to achieve soft extraction of aromas and gentle tannins. After racking, malolactic fermentation is induced. |
